Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

i3lock is a simple screen locker like slock. After starting it, you will see a white screen (you can configure the color/an image). You can return to your screen by entering your password. Many little improvements have been made to i3lock over time: - i3lock forks, so you can combine it with an alias to suspend to RAM (run "i3lock && echo mem > /sys/power/state" to get a locked screen after waking up your computer from suspend to RAM) - You can specify either a background color or a PNG image which will be displayed while your screen is locked. - You can specify whether i3lock should bell upon a wrong password. - i3lock uses PAM and therefore is compatible with LDAP etc. On OpenBSD i3lock uses the bsd_auth(3) framework.
