  29. Requirements
  30. ------------
  31. Currently slstatus works on FreeBSD, Linux and OpenBSD.
  32. In order to build slstatus you need the Xlib header files.
  33. Installation
  34. ------------
  35. Edit config.mk to match your local setup (slstatus is installed into the
  36. /usr/local namespace by default).
  37. Afterwards enter the following command to build and install slstatus (if
  38. necessary as root):
  39. make clean install
  40. Running slstatus
  41. ----------------
  42. See the man page for details.
  43. Configuration
  44. -------------
  45. slstatus can be customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the
  46. source code. This keeps it fast, secure and simple.
  47. Upcoming
