It is written in pure C without any extern programs being executed and only reads from files most of the time. slstatus is meant to be a better alternative to Bash scripts (inefficient) and Conky (bloated and written in C++). -.SH OPTIONS -.TP -.B \-d -run slstatus as daemon in background -.TP -.B \-h -display help -.TP -.B \-o -output continuously to console instead of WM_NAME -.TP -.B \-n -output to console once and exit -.TP -.B \-v -display version and copyright details -.SH CUSTOMIZATION -.B slstatus +.Dd 2017-08-10 +.Dt SLSTATUS 1 +.Os suckless.org +.Sh NAME +.Nm slstatus +.Nd suckless status monitor +.Sh SYNOPSIS +.Nm +.Oo +.Op Fl v +| +.Oo +.Op Fl d +.Op Fl o | n +.Oc +.Oc +.Sh DESCRIPTION +.Nm +is a suckless status monitor for window managers that use WM_NAME (e.g. dwm) or +stdin to fill the status bar. +By default, +.Nm +outputs to WM_NAME. +.Sh OPTIONS +.Bl -tag -width Ds +.It Fl d +Daemonize. +.It Fl n +Write to stdout once and exit. +.It Fl o +Write to stdout continuously. +.It Fl v +Write version information to stdout and exit. +.El +.Sh CUSTOMIZATION +.Nm can be customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the source code.
