Compton
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
**This is a development branch, bug to be expected**
|
|
|
|
This is forked from the original Compton because that seems to have become unmaintained.
|
|
|
|
The current battle plan of this fork is to refactor it to make the code _possible_ to maintain, so potential contributors won't be scared away when they take a look at the code.
|
|
|
|
We also try to fix bugs.
|
|
|
|
The original README can be found [here](README_orig.md)
