Simple Console Display Manager

I created a forked project from "The Console Display Manager" CDM,
thanks Ghost1227 for your work tongue

I simplified its interface and added new options.

It has all its initial features (less theming):

   - Multiple X sessions (user logins are all handled through tty1)
   - Any DE/WM
   - Configurable console logins
   - Users restricted to a single environment bypass the menu on login
   - Root is automatically dropped to console
   - All settings are configurable on a per-user basis


And I added:

   - Uses a common .xinitrc script to start the X programs.

        You can specify a common init script for all your X and I will create a new .xinitrc adding it the command line to execute your X.

   - Supports a default selection and with timeout.

        You can choose a default selection when enter or space is pressed, and you can add a timeout to auto-select the default selection.
        You can press Esc to cancel too.

   - Doesn't clear the screen.

        I like to see the boot messages tongue

   - Doesn't depend on dialog/ncurses.

        Now you have a simpler menu that doesn't clear your screen.

   - Removed themes.

        More gigabytes free on your hdd big_smile


CDM-Simple is in AUR

No Wiki yet, the help is on the installed configuration file /etc/cdmrc

Enjoy! wink
