Branch: pkgsrc-2017Q1, Version: 20150920, Package name: compton-20150920, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Compton is a compositor for X, and a fork of xcompmgr-dana.

Changes from xcompmgr:

OpenGL backend (--backend glx), in addition to the old X Render backend.
Inactive window transparency (-i) / dimming (--inactive-dim).
Titlebar/frame transparency (-e).
Menu transparency (-m, thanks to Dana).
shadows are now enabled for argb windows, e.g. terminals with transparency
removed serverside shadows (and simple compositing) to clean the code,
the only option that remains is clientside shadows
configuration files (see the man page for more details)
colored shadows (--shadow-[red/green/blue])
a new fade system
VSync support (not always working)
Blur of background of transparent windows, window color inversion (bad in
performance)
Some more options...
