### Description
|
||||
|
||||
When your Wayland compositor crashes, your entire session dies with it. This
|
||||
patch allows your session to survive a restart or crash of dwl by passing in
|
||||
the Wayland socket from an outside wrapper program such as
|
||||
[wl-restart](https://github.com/Ferdi265/wl-restart).
|
||||
|
||||
To use, apply this patch and start dwl with `wl-restart --env dwl [args...]`.
|
||||
This automatically restarts dwl when it crashes and tries to keep applications
|
||||
alive.
|
||||
|
||||
Currently, only **Qt6** supports surviving a compositor restart. The
|
||||
environment variable `QT_WAYLAND_RECONNECT=1` needs to be set in order for Qt
|
||||
apps to stay alive when the compositor crashes.
