i3lock-img - improved screen locker fork with increased custom image capabilities
===============================
i3lock is a simple screen locker like slock. After starting it, you will
see a white screen (you can configure the color/an image). You can return
to your screen by entering your password.
i3lock-img
- adds the ability to specify -k to display certain images based on
number of characters entered
- adds the ability to specify -a to display certain images at various
authorization states instead of the old ugly circle
example :
i3lock-img -a ./auth -k ./keypress -K 50
- will display ./auth/0.png on idle, ./auth/1.png of verify, ./auth/3.png on wrong password
- will display ./keypress/$x.png based on how man characters, $x of the password have been
entered up until ./auth/49.png
Many little improvements have been made to i3lock over time:
- i3lock forks, so you can combine it with an alias to suspend to RAM
(run "i3lock && echo mem > /sys/power/state" to get a locked screen
after waking up your computer from suspend to RAM)
- You can specify either a background color or a PNG image which will be
displayed while your screen is locked.
- You can specify whether i3lock should bell upon a wrong password.
- i3lock uses PAM and therefore is compatible with LDAP etc.
On OpenBSD i3lock uses the bsd_auth(3) framework.
Requirements
------------
- pkg-config
- libxcb
- libxcb-util
- libpam-dev
- libcairo-dev
- libxcb-xinerama
- libev
- libx11-dev
- libx11-xcb-dev
- libxkbcommon >= 0.5.0
- libxkbcommon-x11 >= 0.5.0
Running i3lock
-------------
Simply invoke the 'i3lock' command. To get out of it, enter your password and
press enter.
On OpenBSD the `i3lock` binary needs to be setgid `auth` to call the
authentication helpers, e.g. `/usr/libexec/auth/login_passwd`.
