delusional/neocomp repository overview

⁠NeoComp (Compton)

NeoComp is a fork of Compton, a compositor for X11

NeoComp is a (hopefully) fast and (hopefully) simple compositor for X11, focused on delivering frames from the window to the framebuffer as quickly as possible.

It's currently very much in development (Compton is extremely crufty and rigid), so I don't expect it to be stable.

⁠Building

To build, make sure you have the dependencies (yeah I know) then run:

# Make the main program
$ make
# Make the man pages
$ make docs
# Install
$ make install

⁠Usage

The man pages are completely out of date, but still your best bet. Some options from the man pages have been removed, and some added. The code is your best bet.

⁠License

I don't know of the lineage behind Compton. All contributions made by me are GPL. If any previous contributor would like to claim ownership over some part and dispute the license, please open an issue.
