<title>Environment Variables</title>
<para>
Clutter automatically checks environment variables during
its initialization. These environment variables are meant
as debug tools, overrides for default behaviours or to
address known hardware issues:
</para>

inside Clutter. Valid values are: ltr or rtl</para>
