To change this [libxft-bgra](https://github.com/uditkarode/libxft-bgra) needs

This is a patched version especially for running with the suckless programs.
### Display Manager Problems with Full Screen Windows
Using `dwm` or its [Wayland](/wiki/linux/wayland.md) counterpart `dwl` there may be some problems
with full screen programs.
Some of these programs (especially [Steam](/wiki/game/steam.md) [Games](/wiki/game.md)) might

- [pdfpc](https://pdfpc.github.io/) is a cross-platform tool for giving presentations using PDF

It is usable for dual screen setups and features basic notes and timer functions.
In contrast to pympress it features more elaborate functions and abilities to include timer
and other options inside the PDF using the `pdfpc` LaTeX package.
However, it also works well with LaTeX's default `\note` function.
