slock - simple screen locker

Sravan's custom build of slock. Original slock build by suckless team found here: https://tools.suckless.org/slock/

Requirements

In order to build slock 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 slock

Simply invoke the slock command. To get out of it, enter your password.

Configuration

The configuration of slock is done by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the source code.

Patches

Most patches can be found on the suckless website: https://tools.suckless.org/slock/patches/
