Simple screen locker utility for X, based on slock. Provides a very basic user feedback.
In order to build sflock you need the Xlib header files.
Arch Linux users can install this package from the AUR(https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sflock-git/).
Manual installation: Edit config.mk to match your local setup (sflock is installed into the /usr/local namespace by default).
Afterwards enter the following command to build and install sflock (if necessary as root):
make clean install
Simply invoking the sflock command starts the display locker with default settings.
Custom settings:
-h: toggle the bar.
-f : modify the font.
-c : modify the characters displayed when the user enters his password. This can be a sequence of characters to create a fake password.
-b : display a custom message instead of the current user name.
