wayland-logout — generic logout utility for wayland compositors

wayland-logout is a compositor agnostic utility for simulating a logout with any wayland compositor.

       It  sends  a  SIGTERMsignal(3)  to  the  running  compositor  PID  which  is obtained by looking at the
       “environment” variables.

wayland-logout uses the WAYLAND_DISPLAY and XDG_RUNTIME_DIR environment variables to  get  the  socket(2)
       corresponding to the compositor instance.

       To kill the current compositor instance, run inside the compositor environment:
             $wayland-logout

       A  typical  use  case, to kill a specific compositor instance of another user (with uid=1002), run as the
       other user (or as root):
             $env-iXDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1002WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-4wayland-logout
       or
             $WAYLAND_DISPLAY=/run/user/1002/wayland-4wayland-logout

wayland-logout exits with non-zero if an error has occurred along with the error reasoning and exits with
       0 on success.
