xlock screen locker
xlock really does nothing, it uses and wraps i3lock into systemd to allow a seamless screen lock. You have as a background the screenshot of your current screen, the mouse pointer works, nothing can happen. You just have to type your password, press enter and here you go.
Your friends and coworkers can be attempted, they won't succeed !
Installation
run ./install.sh ; you need sudo permissions.
How to use
A lock file is created at '/tmp/.unlocked'. To lock your screen, simply delete this file. After the install the service 'xlock@.path' with <user> being your username during install. To start it systemctl start xlock@user.path, at the install it is enabled by default, so launched at boot.
To add a key binding or to automate your script lock, simply delete the /tmp/.unlocked file.
Security issues
Killin the i3lock process does not remove the locker.
