I was missing waylock on Niri window-manager and decided to create a new one from scratch. In Nim of course!

It's great that Void Linux is listed! :) ❤️

Yes, I just installed Void on my laptop. I'm digging it!

Added better color config via KDL and comparison to other screen lockers.

Binary is only 221k!

Gotta love Nim.

Added a GPU rendered matrix style screensaver that can be toggled on/off with Alt-B. Also, threw several AI's against it to test for security vulnerabilities. Should be pretty solid now. I'm using it across several different machines.
