S. Christoffer Eliesen abc5fbfaec Learn "gaps edge_gaps <on|off|toggle>".
When yes, the old behaviour of adding half the inner gap around each
view is used.

When no, don't add any gap when an edge of the view aligns with the
workspace. The result is inner gap only between views, not against the
workspace edge.

The algorithm is not perfect because it means the extra space is
distributed amongst edge-aligned views only, but it's simple, looks good
and it works.

"SirCmpwn's Wayland window manager" is a work in progress i3-compatible window manager for Wayland. Read the FAQ.

Rationale

I use i3 on xorg. Wayland is coming, and i3way still has zero lines of source code after two years.

Status

See "i3 feature support"

Installation

From Packages

sway is not supported by many distributions yet. Here's a list of packages available for you to install:

Compiling from Source

Install dependencies:

  • cmake
  • wlc
  • xwayland
  • asciidoc
  • pcre
  • json-c

Run these commands:

cmake .
make
sudo make install

Configuration

If you already use i3, then copy your i3 config to ~/.config/sway/config and it'll work out of the box. Otherwise, copy /etc/sway/config to ~/.config/sway/config. Run man 5 sway for information on the configuration.

Running

Run this from a tty (instead of starting x):

sway

If you run it from within x, it will spawn x windows instead of using your hardware directly (useful for development).
