BUDGIE-WM(1)

✨ BUDGIE-WM ✨

okay bestie, so this is the budgie-wm manual page — it lives in section 1 of the manual (the "User Commands" girlies 💅), and it's literally the whole vibe of how the budgie window management works.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

budgie-wm — it's a wrapper around libmutter that forms the window management for budgie. that's the whole job description fr fr 🫶

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

💖 Usage:

budgie-wm [OPTION?]

---

🎀 Help Options:

• -h, --help — shows you the help options. the classic "bestie what do i do" button ✨

---

👑 Application Options:

• --sm-disable — disables the connection to the session manager. no session manager, no problem 💅
• -r, --replace — replaces the window manager that's already running. the way it just *swaps in*… main character energy fr 😭
• --sm-client-id=ID — specify the session management ID.
• -d, --display=DISPLAY — the X Display to use.
• --sm-save-file=FILE — initialize the session from a savefile.
• --sync — makes X calls synchronous. lowkey slow but highkey honest 🐢
• --wayland — run as a wayland compositor. periodt 🌈
• --nested — run as a nested compositor. a compositor inside a compositor, it's giving inception 🌀
• --no-x11 — run the wayland compositor without starting Xwayland. no X11 girlies invited to this party 🙈
• --wayland-display — specify the Wayland display name to use.
• --display-server — run as a full display server, rather than nested. glow up from nested ✨
• --headless — run as a headless display server. no screen, all vibes 💀
• --virtual-monitor — add a persistent virtual monitor. the format is WxH or WxH@R 🖥️
• --x11 — run with the X11 backend.

ngl that's every single option, no skips, no cuts, we don't do that here 💖
