Widget for the awesome window manager that allows to enable/disable the screensaver and change the timeout for the screensaver to activate. Currently, the only supported mode is black-screen/monitor-poweroff.

The implementation depends on xset.

Drop the script into your awesome config folder. Suggestion:

cd ~/.config/awesome git clone https://github.com/deficient/screensaver.git sudo pacman -S xorg-xset

In your ~/.config/awesome/rc.lua:

-- load the module local screensaver = require("screensaver") -- instanciate the control screensaver_ctrl = screensaver({}) -- add the widget to your wibox right_layout:add(screensaver_ctrl.widget)

• awesome 4.0 or possibly 3.5
• xorg xset
