The supported actions are presented: - * Lock - * Logout - * Hibernate (if supported by hardware) - * Shutdown - * Reboot - -## Alternatives -[oblogout](https://launchpad.net/oblogout) looks really old so I did not investigate personally, but it sounds like it does the same thing I am trying to do. -`apt-cache search logout` shows [lxsession-logout](http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/en/man1/lxsession-logout.1.html) which was compiled, as well as does not provide configurable options for changing executed commands or icons. - -## License -[logout-manager-ncurses.py](src/usr/bin/logout-manager-ncurses.py) is licensed under the [MIT license](http://choosealicense.com/licenses/mit) and is derived almost entirely from [adamlamers](http://adamlamers.com/post/FTPD9KNRA8CT). -Everything else is licensed under [CC-BY-SA 4.0](https://choosealicense.com/licenses/cc-by-sa-4.0/). - -## Description -This project is partially a programming playground for the [original author](https://bgstack15.wordpress.com) and partially a useful project for his migration to [Fluxbox](http://fluxbox.org/) on the desktop. - -## Upsides -* This project is the first to [demonstrate SVG images in tkinter in python3](https://bgstack15.wordpress.com/2019/07/13/display-svg-in-tkinter-python3/) that I could find on the Internet. -* I have learned how to work with ncurses, gtk, and tcl in python3. -* This will make Fluxbox systems easier to use for general users. - -## Downsides -This whole thing is more complex than just logging out of my user session, and selecting a logout-type action from the display manager. - -## Improve -* add makefile - * add the standard 'list' option - * add a `list_dependencies` option or similar, which does the grep command - - grep -h -A5 -riIE dependencies * | awk 'tolower($0) ~ /devuan/ {$1="";$2="";print}' | sort | uniq | xargs - -* add logout-manager-cli.py -* add debian/ dir - * and dsc file +# Overview for logout-manager +See the [full readme](src/usr/share/doc/logout-manager/README.md) farther down in the source tree. |
