-<h1>i3lock — a slightly improved version of slock</h1>
+<h1>i3lock — improved screen locker</h1>
<p>
- i3lock improves slock by making it fork() and therefore combinable with
- commands to suspend your computer. Additionally, instead of turning off
- your screen via DPMS and/or displaying a black screen, i3lock displays a
- white screen so you can see if your computer failed to resume from suspend
- or if your screen is just locked. Also, when entering a wrong password,
- i3lock does not call XBell(). This is important because i3lock/slock think
- you’ve entered a password when resuming from suspend, at least sometimes.
+ i3lock is a simple screen locker like slock. After starting it, you will see
+ a white screen (you can configure the color/an image). You can return to your
+ screen by entering your password.
</p>
-<p>
- Furthermore, i3lock supports PAM since version 1.0 (that is, LDAP users
- can use i3lock now, too).
-</p>
+<h2>Improvements</h2>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>
+ i3lock forks, so you can combine it with an alias to suspend to RAM (run
+ "i3lock && echo mem > /sys/power/state" to get a locked screen
+ after waking up your computer from suspend to RAM)
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ You can specify either a background color or a PNG image which will be
+ displayed while your screen is locked.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ You can specify whether i3lock should bell upon a wrong password.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ i3lock uses PAM and therefore is compatible with LDAP etc.
+ </li>
+</ul>
