NAME

       i3lock - improved screen locker

SYNOPSIS

       i3lock [-v] [-n] [-b] [-d] [-i image.png] [-c color] [-t] [-p pointer] [-u]

DESCRIPTION

       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.

IMPROVEMENTS

       * 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.

OPTIONS

       -v, --version
              Display the version of your i3lock

       -n, --nofork
              Don't fork after starting.

       -b, --beep
              Enable beeping. Be sure to not do this when you are about to  annoy  other  people,
              like when opening your laptop in a boring lecture.

       -d, --dpms
              Enable  turning off your screen using DPMS. Note that, when you do not specify this
              option, DPMS will turn off your screen after 15 minutes of inactivity  anyways  (if
              you did not disable this in your X server).

       -u, --no-unlock-indicator
              Disables  the  unlock  indicator.  i3lock  will by default show an unlock indicator
              after pressing keys. This will give feedback for every keypress and  it  will  show
              you  the  current  PAM  state (whether your password is currently being verified or
              whether it is wrong).

       -i path, --image=path
              Display the given PNG image instead of a blank screen.

       -c rrggbb, --color=rrggbb
              Turns the screen into the given color instead of white.  Color  must  be  given  in
              6-byte format: rrggbb (i.e. ff0000 is red)

       -t, --tiling
              If  an  image  is  specified  (via -i) it will display the image tiled all over the
              screen (if it is a multi-monitor setup, the image is visible on all screens).

       -p win|default, --pointer=win|default
              If you specify "default", i3lock does not hide your Mousepointer.  If  you  specify
              "win",  i3lock displays a hardcoded Windows-Pointer (thus enabling you to fuck with
              your friends by using a Screenshot of a Windows-Desktop as a locking-screen).
