The problem I am having is barrier does not seem able to remember it's parameters even though there is a config file in the ~/.config/Debauchee directory. I have saved a barrier.sgc, but hoe would it be use if you have no option to load it? Also, have tried "https://gist.github.com/dayne/e3a7f31f0624bf299faf9fadfe510322" and placed the sh files in /bin, chmod'ed them to 755, and chown'ed them to root:root. to make these script run since ~/.config/i3/config does not exist in my Pi zero, I tried putting a script into init.d to run barrier.client.sh on startup. This was not my first attempt, tried starting barrier using barrierc 192.168.1.21, barrierc --client 192.168.1.21, I even tried looking up synergy and changing various solutions from "synergy" to "barrier" or "synergyc" to "barrierc", nothing I can find works to make barrier use the proper server/client information, and nothing makes it autostart.
