Raw Blame History

nanosm

A nano-sized not-really-a session manager intended to replace less-than-robust Bash/etc scripts.

Written in C++20.

Why write this?

Because app & then exec wm is impressively awful. What if your WM crashes, or your panel? Guess you lose them!

And if your WM crashes? Your whole xorg server goes with it, meaning so does everything else.

A more robust solution that's still small and easy to setup is clearly a better idea.

Configuration

Copy /usr/share/doc/nanosm/nanosm.toml to ~/.config/nanosm/ and edit it to your liking.
