NAME

       unity - wrapper for starting the unity shell and handling fallback

SYNOPSIS

       unity [options]

DESCRIPTION

       The  unity program can be used to start the Unity shell as a compiz module, and to specify
       how to handle logging, debugging, as well as how to deal with the user's profile.

OPTIONS

       --advanced-debug
              Runs unity under debugging (using GDB or another debugger tool)  to  help  tracking
              issues. Should only be used on request from a developper following a bug report.

       --log filename
              This parameter, followed by a path or filename, tells the Unity shell to store logs
              in the specified file.

       --reset
              This option allows the user to reset profile parameters in compiz and  restart  the
              Unity shell with default settings.

       --verbose
              This option turns on displaying additional debugging output for the Unity shell. It
              can be used by the user to debug configuration issues. This option  is  often  used
              along with the --log option to save output to a file.
