# picom
|
||
picom is a standalone compositor for Xorg, suitable for use with window managers that do not provide compositing. picom is a fork of compton, which is a fork of xcompmgr-dana, which in turn is a fork of xcompmgr.
|
||
|
||
## Configuration
|
||
The default configuration is available in `/etc/xdg/picom.conf`. For modifications, it can be copied to `~/.config/picom/picom.conf` or `~/.config/picom.conf`.
|
||
|
||
## Usage
|
||
To manually enable default compositing effects during a session, use the following command:
|
||
`picom &`
|
||
|
||
To autostart picom as a background process for a session, the `-b` argument can be used (may cause a display freeze):
|
||
`picom -b` |
