# suckless `slock` (Simple X display locker)
simple screen locker utility for X
I just migrated to slock from i3lock-fancy so nothing too creative on this build just yet. All that has been replaced are the default colors, which are as follows:
```c
static const char *colorname[NUMCOLS] = {
[INIT] = "#303030", /* after initialization */
[INPUT] = "#11427E", /* during input */
[FAILED] = "#7d4c10", /* wrong password */
};
```
Might get more creative with this in the future, but for right now — let's pretend that it's all for #MiniMUHlism 😎 and not because I'm too lazy to write/apply patches for it 😬
## 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):
```bash
make clean install
```
If you're on Arch Linux you can also just run `makepkg -s` on this git directory and you might be able to just magically get an Arch Package build in this directory, albeit with a little bit of file redundancy
## Running slock
Simply invoke the `slock` command. To get out of it, enter your password.
## Autolock
`slock` can be started after a specific period of user inactivity using xautolock. The command syntax is:
```bash
xautolock -time 10 -locker slock
```
Simpler alternatives to `xautolock` might be `xssstate` or my personal favorite, `xss-lock`.
Just use `xss-lock`…
