+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B dwm
+.RB [ \-dho ]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+slstatus is a suckless and lightweight status monitor for window managers that use WM_NAME as statusbar (e.g. DWM). It is written in pure C without any system calls and only reads from files most of the time. It is meant to be a better alternative to Bash scripts (inefficient) and Conky (bloated for this use).

+.SH CUSTOMIZATION

+can be customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the source
+code. This keeps it fast, secure and simple.
