slstatus - suckless status

slstatus is a small tool for providing system status information to other

|
programs over the EWMH property of the root window (used by dwm(1)) or

Requirements
|
|
------------
|
|
Currently slstatus works on FreeBSD, Linux and OpenBSD.
|
|
In order to build slstatus you need the Xlib header files.
|
|
|
|
- For volume percentage on Linux the kernel module `snd-mixer-oss` must be
|
|
loaded.
|
|
- For volume percentage on FreeBSD, `sndio` must be installed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
Edit config.mk to match your local setup (slstatus is installed into the
|
|
/usr/local namespace by default).
|
|
|
|
Afterwards enter the following command to build and install slstatus (if
|
|
necessary as root):
|
|
|
|
make clean install
|
|
|
|
|
|
Running slstatus
|
|
----------------
|
|
See the man page for details.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
-------------
|
|
slstatus can be customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the
|
|
source code. This keeps it fast, secure and simple.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Upcoming
|
|
--------
|
|
A first feature-complete release with official packages for common distributions
|
|
will come soon.
