A wrapper (wayland-run) makes it + possible to run the demo clients without having to enter the full + path: “wayland-run demo” runs “/usr/lib/wayland/bin/demo”; if there's + no argument, or if the specified demo doesn't exist, a random demo + client is started instead. + + -- Cyril Brulebois <kibi@debian.org> Mon, 20 Jun 2011 23:49:15 +0200 |
