If Blueshift does not work for you for any of these reasons, you should take a look at Redshift. -Blueshift is fully extensible and highly configurable. @node Invoking @chapter Invoking +Blueshift uses argparser to read options from the +commnad line. It inherits a few properaties from this: +abbreviations are supported, you only need to type the +beginning of the long options so that the rest can +be filled in unambiguously by the program; @option{--} +can be used, as usual, to make all following options +being parsed as just arguments; and @option{++} works +like @option{--}, except it only allied to the next +option. Any argument that is not parsed as an option +for Blueshift is passed onto the configuration script. + +Blueshift recognises the following options: + +@table @option +@item -c +@itemx --configurations FILE +Select configuration script. This defaults to the +first file of the following the exists: +@file{$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/blueshift/blueshiftrc}, +@file{$HOME/.config/blueshift/blueshiftrc}, +@file{$HOME/.blueshiftrc}, @file{/etc/blueshiftrc}. +Blueshift does not check the user home, rather it +checks @env{HOME} which should be the user home, unless +you change it yourself. + +@item -p @c the long name of option is inspired from openntpd +@itemx --panic-gate +@itemx --panicgate +Applies the settings directly instead of transitioning +into the initial settings.
