SWTCHRD(1)

✨ SWTCHRD ✨

okay bestie, pull up a chair 🫢 this is the manual page for swtchrd version 0.1.2, and honestly? it's giving "small but mighty." let's get into it πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

swtchrd [OPTIONS]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so what is this? swtchrd is a Gnome-style window switcher for the Sway window manager. iconic, we know πŸ”₯

this here is the command that starts the swtchr daemon. like, the daemon does not spawn itself, bestie, somebody has to do it, and that somebody is you.

you should run this command when you start your Sway session β€” either through your Sway config, or via a systemd service. either way works, just don't leave the daemon sitting there unstarted like a sad little ghost πŸ‘»


πŸ’– OPTIONS πŸ’–

  • -c, --config <PATH> β€” overrides the path of the config file. want your config somewhere else? say less, just point at it 🫡
  • --no-check β€” skips the check that the daemon is running in a Sway session. normally it peeks around to make sure you're actually in Sway; this flag tells it to mind its business πŸ™ˆ
  • -h, --help β€” prints help (see a summary with -h)
  • -V, --version β€” prints the version

πŸŽ€ SEE ALSO πŸŽ€
