i3lock - slightly improved screen locker based on slock
|
||
|
|
============================
|
||
|
|
i3lock improves slock by making it fork() and therefore combinable with
|
||
|
|
commands to suspend your computer. Additionally, instead of turning of
|
||
|
|
your screen via DPMS and/or displaying a black screen, i3lock displays a
|
||
|
|
white screen so you can see if your computer failed to resume from suspend
|
||
|
|
or if your screen is just locked. Also, when entering a wrong password,
|
||
|
|
i3lock does not call XBell(). This is important because i3lock/slock think
|
||
|
|
you’ve entered a password when resuming from suspend, at least sometimes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
i3lock was forked from slock-0.9
|
||
|
|
|

|
|
Requirements
|
||
|
|
------------
|
||
|
|
In order to build i3lock you need the Xlib header files.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Installation
|
||
|
|
------------
|
||
|
|
Edit config.mk to match your local setup (slock is installed into
|
||
|
|
the /usr/local namespace by default).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Afterwards enter the following command to build and install slock
|
||
|
|
(if necessary as root):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
make clean install
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Running i3lock
|
||
|
|
-------------
|
||
|
|
Simply invoke the 'i3lock' command. To get out of it, enter your password.
