Description

Desktop text overlays can show script output or file content directly on sway and other wlroots-based compositors. This helps window-manager users place status information, notes, or custom widgets without a full desktop panel.

This is a desktop integration helper. It is most useful in manually configured Wayland sessions and may need user scripts or layout configuration to become useful.
