SWAYLOCK-FANCY(1)

📦 version 2023-12, in nixos 26.05, nixpkgs unstable

💅 NAME 💅

okay bestie, this is SWAYLOCK-FANCY(1) from the General Commands Manual. The star of the show is swaylock-fancy — a Bash script around swaylock for fancy effect. 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so picture this: it takes a screenshot of the desktop, blurs the background, and adds a lock icon and text. Then that blurred image is given to swaylock as the lockscreen background. It's giving fancy lockscreen, no cap. ✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

swaylock-fancy [options]

🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

  • -h, --help — displays a help screen and exits, like a little goodbye wave. 👋
  • -d, --desktop — attempts to minimize all windows before locking. 🪟
  • -g, --greyscale — sets the background to greyscale instead of color. 🖤
  • -p, --pixelate — pixelates the background instead of blur; it runs faster. ⚡
  • -f <fontname>, --font <fontname> — sets a custom font. 🔤
  • -t <text>, --text <text> — sets a custom text prompt. 📝
  • -l, --listfonts — displays a list of possible fonts for use with -f/--font. 🔎
bestie, note: this option will not lock the screen; it displays the list and exits immediately. 🚪
