### Other Desktop Environments
Depending on your system, there might be specific DE commands to lock your
screen and log out from the session. You may have to change the commands inside
the `case` statement of the script `powermenu.sh` for it to work on your system.
```bash
case $selected in
"${poweroff}")
systemctl poweroff
;;
"${reboot}")
systemctl reboot
;;
"${sleep}")
systemctl suspend
;;
"${logout}")
# DE specific
;;
"${lock}")
# DE specific
;;
esac
```
## Acknowledgments
This powermenu uses open source fonts
[Webly SleekUI](https://fonts2u.com/weblysleek-ui-semilight.font)
and
[Feather](https://github.com/feathericons/feather).
I compiled Feather using [my modified fork](https://github.com/lu0/svg-to-ttf)
of [rfbezerra's `svg-to-ttf` utility](https://github.com/rfbezerra/svg-to-ttf)
(which uses [Fontcustom](https://github.com/FontCustom/fontcustom))
to set the start of the character map.
