Output displayed by X programs, and windows put up +by new X clients, continue to be visible, and any new output is +displayed normally. + +The mouse and keyboard are returned when the user types their +password, followed by Enter or Newline. If an incorrect password is +entered the bell is sounded. Pressing Backspace or Delete erases one +character of a password partially typed; pressing Escape or Clear +clears anything that has been entered. + +If too many attempts are made in too short a time further keystrokes +generate bells and are otherwise ignored until a timeout has expired. + +The X server screen saver continues to operate normally; if it comes +into operation the display may be restored by the usual means of +touching a key (Shift, for example) or the mouse. +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +\fB\-b\fR +blank the screen as well as displaying the padlock +.SH X RESOURCES, CONFIGURATION +None. +.SH BUGS +Additional input devices other than the keyboard and mouse are not +disabled. + +The timeouts, bitmaps and mouse cursor colour cannot be modifed. +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR X "(1), Xlib Documentation." +.SH AUTHOR +Ian Jackson <ian@chiark.greenend.org.uk> +.SH COPYRIGHT +Copyright (C) 1993, 1994 by Ian Jackson. + +Permission to use, copy, modify and distribute this software and its +documentation is granted under the terms of the GNU General Public +Licence, version 2 or later, as published by the Free Software +Foundation. + +This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but +WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of +MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
