- I'm curious to know if anyone has create/posted/modified/etc source
- code for `xlock` and where I might find it.
-
- What I'm really looking for is a `xlock` utility that a user can
- invoke, the screen will then lock with a text window appearing
- showing the users desired text to be displayed, and area which users
- can type text into.
-
- Example:
-
- +---------------------------+
- | Stepped out for meeting |
- | will be back at 11:00 |
- |---------------------------|
- | Please leave message: |
- | |
- | |
- | |
- |---------------------------|
- | passwd: |
- +---------------------------+
-
-
- If no one has done anything like this, I'll assume that my best
- alternative is to find X11 R4 source, get the xlock source, and
- work on it myself.
-
- Thanks in advance,
