SLOCK(1) General Commands Manual SLOCK(1) NAME slock - simple X screen locker SYNOPSIS slock [-v] [cmd [arg ...]] DESCRIPTION slock is a simple X screen locker. If provided, cmd [arg ...] is executed after the screen has been locked. OPTIONS -v Print version information to stdout and exit. SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS To make sure a locked screen can not be bypassed by switching VTs or killing the X server with Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, it is recommended to disable both in xorg.conf(5) for maximum security: Section "ServerFlags" Option "DontVTSwitch" "True" Option "DontZap" "True" EndSection EXAMPLES $ slock /usr/sbin/s2ram CUSTOMIZATION slock can be customized by creating a custom config.h from config.def.h and (re)compiling the source code. This keeps it fast, secure and simple. 2016-08-23
