NO DOCUMENTATION #1063

Closed RedDofamine closed 2 years ago

RedDofamine commented 2 years ago

I have not seen the worst documentation. I am a beginner in Linux and for me important examples of the use of certain flags to display information (it is incomplete in the documentation). The main page of the project states that the application is very customized and you can really see some great examples, but it is unknown how to implement them, what knowledge is needed for this - it is unknown. Let's take a situation where we want to display notifications in a certain part of the screen and for this we have an origin and an offset, whether it is possible to use different values ​​for certain programs is unknown. Even if you can do it, the documentation will show you - nothing. In my opinion, the shortcomings described above simply kill this project for beginners.

@RedDofamine is the above mentioned documentation sufficient?

@fwsmit I'm still where I was.

You should take another look at the man page. All settings are described there. All settings in the global section, like origin, are not configurable per notification.
