# Configuration

syslock can be configured in 2 ways


1: By changing config.hpp and recompiling (Suckless style)


2: Using a config file (~/.config/sys64/lock/config.conf)


3: Using launch arguments


```

arguments:

  -s	Start unlocked

  -k	Enable the keypad

  -l	Set password length (For automatic unlocks)

  -m	Set primary monitor

  -e	Enable experimental session lock

  -d	Enable debug mode

  -v	Prints version info

```

# Signals

You can send a signal to show the window/s again.


``pkill -10 syslock``


# Theming

syslock uses your gtk4 theme by default, However it can be also load custom css,


Just copy the included style.css file to ~/.config/sys64/lock/style.css


# Session lock

Currently the session lock protocol is implemented but disabled by default due to it not working once you lock your screen again.


You can enable it by using the -e launch flag.


Help with this would be greatly appreciated.
