We have the Weston command line option '--no-config' which is meant to prevent loading weston.ini at all. It works for Weston itself, but it does not work for any clients that also want to read weston.ini. To fix that, introduce a new environment variable WESTON_CONFIG_FILE. Weston will set it to the absolute path of the config file it loads. Clients will load the config file pointed to by WESTON_CONFIG_FILE. If the environment variable is set but empty, no config file will be loaded. If the variable is unset, things fall back to the default "weston.ini". Note, that Weston will only set WESTON_CONFIG_FILE, it never reads it. The ability to specify a custom config file to load will be another patch. All programs that loaded "weston.ini" are modified to honour WESTON_CONFIG_FILE.

Weston Weston is the reference implementation of a Wayland compositor, and a useful compositor in its own right. Weston has various backends that lets it run on Linux kernel modesetting and evdev input as well as under X11. Weston ships with a few example clients, from simple clients that demonstrate certain aspects of the protocol to more complete clients and a simplistic toolkit. There is also a quite capable terminal emulator (weston-terminal) and an toy/example desktop shell. Finally, weston also provides integration with the Xorg server and can pull X clients into the Wayland desktop and act as a X window manager. Refer to http://wayland.freedesktop.org/building.html for building weston and its dependencies. The test suite can be invoked via `make check`; see http://wayland.freedesktop.org/testing.html for additional details.
