Output simple text to a Wayland desktop widget
Wayout takes text from standard input and outputs it to a desktop-widget on Wayland desktops. Periodic updates are supported; e.g. newline-separated input or any other delimiter of choice. We call this a feed. The desktop widget can be shown either on top OSD-like functionality or below other windows.
A Wayland compositor must implement the Layer-Shell and XDG-Output for wayout to work.
Features
- Allow updating from standard input at a regular interval; custom delimiters
- Configurable colours/border/position/fonts
- Supports the pango markup language for text markup/colours.
