Description

Locks an X11 desktop session with a simple transparent screen locker. It is useful for lightweight window-manager setups that need a basic way to prevent casual access while the user is away.

A screen locker protects only if it is configured correctly and trusted with authentication. Test it before relying on it, especially with suspend, multiple monitors, remote sessions, or custom keyboard shortcuts.
