### 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.
