- Wait for the user to make a selection and output its geometry to `stdout`:

- Double click, rather than click and drag, to draw a selection:

`slop -D`

- Highlight the selection rather than outlining it:

`slop -l`

- Specify the output format:

`slop -f {{format_string}}`

- Specify the selection rectangle's color:

`slop -c {{red}},{{green}},{{blue}},{{alpha}}`
