 Running a resident instance should speed up use of the drawer significantly. Pay attention to the fact, that you
 need to `pkill -f nwg-drawer` and reload the compositor to apply any new arguments!
 
+If you want to explicitly specify commands to open and close the resident instance, which can be helpful for touchpad gestures, please use the `-open` and `-close` parameters. Similarly, some signals can also be use: pkill -USR2 nwg-drawer to open and pkill -SIGRTMIN+3 nwg-drawer to close.

+bindgesture pinch:4:outward exec pkill -SIGRTMIN+3 nwg-drawer
