.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
The \fBrc\&.lua\fR file contains configuration information for \fBawesome\fR\&. It can be used to configure the behavior and look of awesome in a variety of ways\&. It can be assimilated as a Lua program/script run at startup by \fBawesome\fR\&. Therefore, it should use the awesome Lua API described in the API section\&. This file is read at startup\&.
.SH "AWESOME LUA API"
.sp
Documentation for the Lua API can be found in the luadoc directory\&.
.SH "COLORS FORMAT"
.sp
The color format in \fBawesome\fR is either a standard X color name (blue, darkblue, lightred, etc) or a hexadecimal formatted color (#rrggbb or #rrggbbaa)\&. By using the hexadecimal format, you can also specify an alpha channel: that means that #00ff00 will draw pure green, but #00ff00aa will set the alpha channel to \(oqaa\(cq and will blend the green with the color under it\&.
.SH "TEXT FORMAT"
.sp
You can use Pango markup in a text string\&. This allows formating the text rendered inside widgets\&. Pango markup documentation can be found in the Pango documentation at \m[blue]\fBhttp://library\&.gnome\&.org/devel/pango/stable/PangoMarkupFormat\&.html\fR\m[]\&.
.sp
A Pango markup example: <span weight="bold" foreground="#336699">\&...</span>\&.
