NAME
|
|
----
|
|
alock - locks the local X display until a password is entered.
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'alock' [-h] [-v] [-bg type:opts] [-cursor type:opts] [-auth type:opts]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
'alock' locks the X server till the user enters a password at the
|
|
keyboard. If the authentification was successful the X server is
|
|
unlocked and the user can continue to work.
|
|
|
|
'alock' does not provide fancy animations like 'xlock' and 'xscreensaver'
|
|
and never will. Its just for locking the current X session.
