    The command above is variable.Here are some parameters.

    -b start in the background
    -c Create window shadows
    -C no transparency for docks or panels
    -ox Opacity of a shadow (x = 0.0 – 1.0, default: 0.75)
    -O x Hiding opacity increment (0.01 – 1.0, default: 0.03)
    -mx Transparency of a menu
    -ix Transparency of an inactive window (0.1 – 1.0)
    -I x Increase opacity increment (0.01 – 1.0, default: 0.028)
    -ex Transparency of the window decoration (0.1 – 1.0)
    -f Show / hide when enabling / disabling windows
    -lx (small L) Left offset for shadows (in pixels, default: -15)
    -tx Upper Offset for Shadow (in pixels, default: -15)
    -rx Shadow blur radius (in pixels, default: 12)
    -Dx The number x stands for the step size (in milliseconds) when fading in / out
    -G No shadow display when drag’n’drop of windows

    0.0 is the most transparency
    It could also look like this ec

    compton -c -o 0.8 -m 0.8 -e 0.75 -f -b &

    You have to look a little bit into compton and play with the options, it’s not like installing and works.
    You can also look at “man compton” or “compton -h”
    Anyway I dont know if its a good idea to do this on antix.
    For to hide the taskbar in icewm, did you try the collapse-button in preferences?
    Good luck !
