     33 Requirements

     35 Currently slstatus works on FreeBSD, Linux and OpenBSD.
     36 In order to build slstatus you need the Xlib header files.
     37 
     38 
     39 Installation
     40 ------------
     41 Edit config.mk to match your local setup (slstatus is installed into the
     42 /usr/local namespace by default).
     43 
     44 Afterwards enter the following command to build and install slstatus (if
     45 necessary as root):
     46 
     47     make clean install
     48 
     49 
     50 Running slstatus

     52 See the man page for details.
     53 
     54 
     55 Configuration
     56 -------------
     57 slstatus can be customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the
     58 source code. This keeps it fast, secure and simple.
