+xlock locks the X server until the user enters their password at the
+keyboard. While xlock is running, all new server connections are
+refused. The screen saver is disabled. The mouse cursor is turned
+off. The screen is blanked and a changing pattern is put on the
+screen. If a key or a mouse button is pressed then the user is
+prompted for the password of the user who started xlock.
+
+If the correct password is typed, then the screen is unlocked and the
+X server is restored. When typing the password, Control-U and
+Control-H are active as kill and erase respectively. To return to the
+locked screen, click in the small icon version of the changing
+pattern.
