+4.3) VSYNC and tearing
+======================
+
+Starting with version 4.13, xfwm4 now supports VSYNC via two different
+method, either using OpenGL or the Present X11 extension.
+
+xfwm4 relies on libepoxy for OpenGL, and on libXpresent for Present support.
+
+Support for those features can be checked using "xfwm4 --version":
+
+	Build configuration and supported features:
+        ...
+	- Xpresent support:                             Yes
+	- Embedded compositor:                          Yes
+	- Epoxy support:                                Yes
+        ...
+
+If both VSYNC methods are available, xfwm4 will prefer OpenGL. To force the
+use of the present extension, set the environment variable XFWM4_USE_PRESENT
+prior to run xfwm4, e.g.:
+
+    $ XFWM4_USE_PRESENT=1 xfwm4 --replace &
