NAME
       swappy -	grab and edit on the fly snapshots of a	Wayland	compositor

SYNOPSIS
       swappy [options...]

DESCRIPTION
       swappy is a command-line	utility	to take	and edit screenshots of	Way-
       land desktops. Works great with grim, slurp and sway. But can easily
       work with other screen copy tools that can output a final PNG image to
       stdout.

       swappy will save	the annotated images to	the config save_dir, see be-
       low.

       If absent, then if it will try to default to a Desktop folder following
       this pattern: $XDG_DESKTOP_DIR. If this variable	is not set, it will
       revert to: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/Desktop. If $XDG_CONFIG_HOME	is not set, it
       will revert to: $HOME/Desktop.

OPTIONS
       -h, --help
	   Show	help message and quit.

       -v, --version
	   Show	version	and quit.

       -f, --file <file>
	   A PNG file to load for editing.

	   If set to -,	read the file from standard input instead. This	is
	   grim	friendly.

       -o, --output-file <file>
	   Print the final surface to <file> when exiting the application.

	   If set to -,	prints the final surface to stdout.

	   Note	that the Save button will save the image to the	config
	   save_dir parameter, as described in the DESCRIPTION section.
