Originalwlogout

wlogout is a logout menu for wayland environments.
Running
Run wlogout to launch and press Escape to exit.
Config
If you are editing the default layout and CSS file, it is recommended that you copy /etc/wlogout/layout and /etc/wlogout/style.css to ~/.config/wlogout/ and change them there.
Layout
Custom buttons can be defined and edited in a layout file. The format is as follows:
{
"label" : "CSS Label",
"action" : "command to execute when clicked",
"text" : "text displayed on button",
"keybind" : "character to be bound"
}
Check the default layout file for examples, and run man 5 wlogout for documentation.
Style
wlogout can be easily styled through the style.css file. If you would like to style a button, use the label given to it in the layout file, and for other styling, refer to the GTK Manual, which shows all the allowed CSS.
