Just one more question..

When I tried the crypt() function in a sample program, and encrypted my password, it didn't look anything like my password in the /etc/shadow-file..

Do I have to use other functions, to extract the password from the shadow-file?

NAME
fvwm-menu-xlock - builds xlock menu definition for fvwm SYNOPSIS
fvwm-menu-xlock [ --help|-h|-? ] [ --version|-V ] [ --name|-n name ] [ --title|-t title ] [ --item format ] [ --icon-title icon ] [ --icon-item icon ] [ --special-first|-s ] [ -- xlock params ] DESCRIPTION
A simple perl script which parses xlock's output to build an fvwm menu definition of all xlock's modes. OPTIONS
--help show the help and exit --version show the version and exit --name name define menu name in the following argument. Default is "XLockMenu" --title title define menu title in the following argument. Default is "XLock Modes". --item format define menu item format in the following argument, default is '%n (%d)'. TAB can be specified as ' ', but in .fvwm2rc you should specify a double backslash or a real TAB. Format specifiers: %n - mode name %d - mode description %D - mode description without "Shows " prefix if any These specifiers can receive an optional integer size, positive for right adjusted string or negative for left adjusted, example: %8x; and optional *num or *-num, which means to leave only the first or last (if minus) num of chars, the num must be greater than 3, since the striped part is replaced with "...", example: %*30x. Both can be combined: %-10*-20x, this instructs to get only the 20 last characters, but if the length is less then 10 - to fill with up to 10 spaces on the right. --icon-title icon --icon-item icon define menu icon for title and regular item accordingly. Default is no menu icons (equivalent to an empty icon argument). --wm-icons define icon names suitable for use with wm-icons package. Currently this is equivalent to: --icon-title '' --icon-item menu/lock.xpm. --special-first instructs to include special modes (usually black, bomb and random) first. Option parameters can be specified either using '=' or in the next argument. Short options are ok if not ambiguous: -h, -t; but be careful with short options, what is now unambiguous, can became ambiguous in the next versions. Additional arguments (after --) will be passed to xlock. Please see the xlock(1) man page for the xlock options. USAGE
Add these lines to your fvwm configuration file: PipeRead 'fvwm-menu-xlock --name MenuSSaver --title "Screensaver" --icon-item mini-bball.xpm --special-first -- -nice 19 -nolock' PipeRead 'fvwm-menu-xlock --name MenuSLock --title "Lock Screen" --icon-item mini-rball.xpm --special-first -- -nice 19' AddToMenu "Utilities" "Screensaver%mini-monitor.xpm%" Popup MenuSSaver AddToMenu "Utilities" "Screenlock%mini-lock.xpm%" Popup MenuSLock AUTHORS
