Thanks to Ran Benita and Daniel Stone (the libxkbcommon authors) for answering my questions and reviewing this code. With this commit, input handling should be more correct with using less code (in i3lock, that is).

i3lock - improved screen locker
|
|
===============================
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
Requirements
|
|
------------
|
|
- pkg-config (or you can rewrite the Makefile by hand if you want to avoid it)
|
|
- libxcb
|
|
- libxcb-util
|
|
- libpam-dev
|
|
- libcairo-dev

Running i3lock
|
|
-------------
|
|
Simply invoke the 'i3lock' command. To get out of it, enter your password.
|
|
|
|
Building i3lock
|
|
-------------
|
|
If you don't want to build against libcairo run "make NOLIBCAIRO=y", without
|
|
libcairo displaying images is not possible.
