displayed while your screen is locked.
- You can also specify additional color options with the following command-line options:
- `--insidevercolor=rrggbbaa` -- Inside of the circle while the password is being verified
- `--insidewrongcolor=rrggbbaa` -- Inside of the circle when a wrong password was entered
- `--insidecolor=rrggbbaa` -- Inside of the circle while typing/idle
- `--ringvercolor=rrggbbaa` -- Outer ring while the password is being verified
- `--ringwrongcolor=rrggbbaa` -- Outer ring when a wrong password was entered
- `--ringcolor=rrggbbaa` -- Outer ring while typing/idle
- `--linecolor=rrggbbaa` -- Line separating outer ring from inside of the circle
- `--separatorcolor=rrggbbaa` -- Lines delimiting the highlight segments
- `--textcolor=rrggbbaa` -- Text ("verifying", "wrong!")
- `--line-uses-ring`, `-r` -- the line between the inside and outer ring uses the ring color for its color
- `--line-uses-inside`, `-s` -- the line between the inside and outer ring uses the inside color for its color
- The following additional options have been added:
- `-S, --screen` -- specifies which display to draw the unlock indicator on
- `-k, --clock` -- enables the clock display.
- `--indicator` -- forces the indicator to always show, even if there's no activity.
- `--composite` -- enables checking for compositors and trying to grab the compositor window, since that causes issues with some compositors.
- **NOTE**: This can potentially allow sensitive information to display over the screen locker, so take care when you use this option.
- `-B=sigma, --blur` -- enables Gaussian blur. Sigma is the blur radius.
- Note: You can still composite images over the blur (but still under the indicator) with -i.
- Eventually there might be an `imagepos` arg, similar to `time` and `datepos`.
- `--indpos="x+(w/2):y+(h/2)"` -- position of the unlock indicator. Expressions using the variables x (current screen's x value), y (current screen's y value), w (screen width), h (screen height), and r (indicator radius) can be used.
- `--timestr="%H:%M:%S"` -- allows custom overriding of the time format string. Accepts `strftime` formatting. Default is `"%H:%M:%S"`.
- `--timepos="ix:iy-20"` -- position of the time. All the variables in `indpos` can be used here, as well as the additional values ix (indicator x position), iy (indicator y position), cw (clock width), and ch (clock height).
- `--timecolor=rrggbbaa` -- color of the time string
- `--timefont="sans-serif"` -- font used for the time display
- `--timesize=32` -- font size for the time display
- `--datestr="%A, %m %Y"` -- allows custom overriding of the date format string. Accepts `strftime` formatting. Default is `"%A, %m %Y"`.
- `--datepos="ix:iy-20"` -- position of the date. All the variables in `indpos` and `timepos` can be used here, as well as the additional values tx (time x) and ty (time y).
- `--datecolor=rrggbbaa` -- color of the date string
- `--datefont="sans-serif"` -- font used for the date display
- `--datesize=14` -- font size for the date display
- `--veriftext="verifying…"` -- text to be shown while verifying
- `--wrongtext="wrong!"` -- text to be shown upon an incorrect password being entered
- `--statusfont="sans-serif"` -- font used for the status text
- `--textsize=28` -- font size for the status text
- `--modsize=14` -- font size for the modifier keys listing
- `--radius=90` -- the radius of the circle indicator
- `--ring-width=7` -- the width of the indicator ring
- The readme's list of options might be a bit out of date - please check the manpage, or look at the list of options in i3lock.c.

## Additional features in this fork
- You can also specify additional options, as detailed in the manpage. This includes, but is not limited to, the following:
- Color options for the following:
- verification ring
- interior ring color
- ring interior line color
- key highlight color
- backspace highlight color
- text colors for most/all strings
- Changing all of the above depending on PAM's authentication status
- Blurring the current screen and using that as the lock background
- Showing a clock in the indicator
- refreshing on a timer, instead of on each keypress
- Positioning the various UI elements
- Changing the ring radius and thickness, as well as text size
- A new bar indicator, which replaces the ring indicator with its own set of options
- An experimental thread for driving the redraw ticks, so that things like the bar/clock still update when PAM is blocking
