Description : Mutter is a window and compositing manager that displays and manages
: your desktop via OpenGL. Mutter combines a sophisticated display engine
: using the Clutter toolkit with solid window-management logic inherited
: from the Metacity window manager.
:
: While Mutter can be used stand-alone, it is primarily intended to be
: used as the display core of a larger system such as GNOME Shell. For
: this reason, Mutter is very extensible via plugins, which are used both
: to add fancy visual effects and to rework the window management
: behaviors to meet the needs of the environment.
