Running
-------
2021-11-20 14:46:03 +00:00
Add the following line to your `.xinitrc` to start PolytreeWM using `startx`:
2021-11-14 18:17:50 +00:00
exec polytreewm
2021-11-20 14:46:03 +00:00
In order to connect PolytreeWM to a specific display, make sure that the
`DISPLAY` environment variable is set correctly, e.g.:
2021-11-14 18:17:50 +00:00
DISPLAY=foo.bar:1 exec polytreewm
2021-11-20 14:46:03 +00:00
This will start PolytreeWM on display :1 of the host foo.bar.
