🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

agreety [options]

πŸ’… DESCRIPTION πŸ’…

okay so, agreety is a super simple text-based greeter for greetd(1) and it's giving agetty(8) and login(1) vibes, like the look is very similar ✨ It's bundled with greetd(1), so you already have it, bestie 🫢

to use it, just configure it as your greeter in your greetd config file. that's the whole move πŸ’œ

πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -h, --help β€” shows the help message and quits πŸ™ˆ
  • -c, --cmd <command> β€” sets the command to run once login succeeds. if you don't give one, agreety will ask you what to run instead πŸ”₯
  • -f, --max-failures <num> β€” sets how many login failures it'll tolerate before it terminates. the default is 5 (five strikes and you're out, no cap) πŸ’€
