x11/xautolock

Manpage: Xautolock monitors the user activity on an X Window display. If none is detected within mins minutes, a program is started as specified by the -locker option. Xautolock will typically be used to lock the screen (hence its primary name) but it really doesn't care what program you make it start.

I love the Mac OS screensaver as it lets me configure hot corners. I (literally) push the mouse into the top right corner to disable the screensaver and the bottom right corner to instantly enable the screensaver.

Finally, I can do that on X-Window. Here is how I start xautolock:

Quote:
$ xautolock -time 5 -locker /usr/pkg/bin/xlock -corners 0-0+ -cornersize 1 -cornerdelay 0

I wonder what else one can do with xautolock.
