DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly mutter.
mutter is a minimal X window manager aimed at nontechnical users and is
designed to integrate well with the GNOME desktop. mutter lacks some
features that may be expected by traditional UNIX or other technical
users; these users may want to investigate other available window man-
agers for use with GNOME or standalone.
OPTIONS
--display=DISPLAY

--replace

are encouraged to change the GNOME window manager by running the
new WM with the --replace or -replace option, and subsequently
saving the session.
--sm-client-id=ID
Specify a session management ID.
--sm-disable
Disable the session management.
--sm-save-file=FILENAME
Load a session from FILENAME.
--version
Print the version number.
-?, --help
Show summary of options.
CONFIGURATION

erences->Keyboard Shortcuts on the menu-panel. Advanced configuration
can be achieved directly through gsettings.
