|
==========================
|

Requirements
|
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
In order to build slstatus you need the Xlib header files and optionally ALSA
|
|
|
|
|
for volume percentage. PulseAudio is not supported for various reasons.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
Edit config.mk to match your local setup (slstatus is installed into the
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/local namespace by default).
|
|
|

|
|
|
Afterwards enter the following command to build and install slstatus (if
|
|
|
|
|
necessary as root):
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
make clean install
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Running slstatus
|
|
|
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
|
See the man page for details.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
|
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
|
slstatus can be customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the
|
|
|
|
|
source code. This keeps it fast, secure and simple.
