It seems you mistake suckless for the minimalism

Hi all,
This is similar to what we do with http://git.suckless.org/utmp.
Take this with a grain of salt at the moment. There are some smaller
fixes embedded in this commit and it might be wise to split those
out.
Second step is to split the ifdef'ed code out into bsd.c and linux.c

Hi,
Generally very useful - consider going through a configure script or similar
that bombs out because of an unimplemented option. This provides
a quick indication as to which program actually failed.
We should probably default to that.

Me, I do believe that slock shall be targeting the aim of this program:
1) lock x11.
Ok, look my example, think about a student behind the rules of the admin.
In an ideal case, he compiles the slock, and he locks and it really works.
In the present case, he compile, and it crashes since he

what about activating your ssh server only when you need it?
You could even activate it via mobile phone (e.g. SMS to your box),

Then you must appeal to the administrator(s) and provide the source so that
they may review it and install it. just the same way they've installed other

Hi,
here is a patch that replaces long with int.
It saves some memory on 64bit systems.

If you want 32 bits use uint32_t, in other case I will not apply the patch.

Hi,
For instance, I have been using during years fluxbox, and I must say
that there was one feature (one out of many) that was interesting to be used.
- It is called "Desktop Warping"
What is it? - From the flux man page, it has been indicated as follows:
"When desktop warping is enabled, draggi

I know the feature. It does
For a primarily tiling window manager that encourages the use of a
keyboard over a mouse and uses the concept of tags rather than
multiple desktops… “desktop warping” seems awful.
"because I doubt many of us routinely move windows by dragging
anyway,"
Oh, I forgot to add it into my original post since we rarely use the
mouse actually.
I though about it to write it, but I finally did not mention it.
thanks for notice/add-on

I've renamed stem to togs so that it no longer conflicts with the Tor
stem project, https://stem.torproject.org/ . I'm hopeful that the new

I don't like use words like stupid, because some times it can change
