NAME

kanshi - dynamic output configuration

DESCRIPTION

kanshi

SYNOPSIS

kanshi is a Wayland daemon that automatically configures outputs.

kanshi is configured with a list of output profiles. Each profile contains a set of outputs. A profile will be automatically activated if all specified outputs are currently connected. A profile contains configuration for each output.

CONFIGURATION

kanshi reads its configuration from $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/kanshi/config. If unset, $XDG_CONFIG_HOME defaults to ~/.config.

An error is raised if no configuration file is found.

For information on the configuration file format, see kanshi(5).
