Frequently asked questions

How do I back up Betterlockscreen?

Copy the rc file plus cache folder with the locker idle. Wallpapers regenerate from sources. Restoring means putting the rc back.

Which rc is live?

Legacy dot rc migrates forward with warnings while system and doc examples seed fresh setups. Current XDG dir wins. Trust the chain order.
