1 .TH SLSTATUS 1 slstatus\-VERSION
3 slstatus \- suckless status
8 slstatus is a suckless and lightweight status monitor for window managers that use WM_NAME as statusbar (e.g. DWM). It is written in pure C without any system calls and only reads from files most of the time. It is meant to be a better alternative to Bash scripts (inefficient) and Conky (bloated for this use).
12 runs slstatus as daemon in background
18 output to console instead of WM_NAME
21 can be customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the source
22 code. This keeps it fast, secure and simple.
