xlock locks the X server till the user enters their pass-
|
|
word at the keyboard. While xlock is running, all new
|
|
server connections are refused. The screen saver is dis-
|
|
abled. The mouse cursor is turned off. The screen is
|
|
blanked and a changing pattern is put on the screen. If a
|
|
key or a mouse button is pressed then the user is prompted
|
|
for the password of the user who started xlock.
|
|
|
|
If the correct password is typed, then the screen is
|
|
unlocked and the X server is restored. When typing the
|
|
password Control-U and Control-H are active as kill and
|
|
erase respectively. To return to the locked screen, click
|
|
in the small icon version of the changing pattern.
