.SH DESCRIPTION
.B i3lock
locks your screen by making it white (default). To quit
.B i3lock
just enter your password.
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 passwords.
.SH DIFFERENCES TO SLOCK
.SH IMPROVEMENTS
.B i3lock
improves slock by making it fork() and therefore combinable with
commands to suspend your computer. Additionally, instead of turning off
your screen via DPMS and/or displaying a black screen,
.B i3lock
displays a white (or colored in your favorite color) screen so you can see
if your computer failed to resume from suspend or if your screen is just
locked. Since version 1.1,
.B i3lock
can display images in XPM file format. Also, when entering a wrong password,
.B i3lock
does not call XBell(). This is important because
.B i3lock/slock
think you've entered a password when resuming from suspend, at least sometimes.
.TP
* 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)
.TP
* You can either a background color or a PNG image which will be displayed while your screen is locked.
.TP
* You can specify whether i3lock should bell upon a wrong password.
.TP
* i3lock uses PAM and therefore is compatible with LDAP etc.
Since version 1.0, i3lock supports PAM.
