Re: SOLVED: Is invoking the -locker option of xautolock to run a script known? Could I be helped with an xautolock code line please?



My dear illustrious List leaders and senior members.

I wanted to know if the line [quote] xautolock -time 1 -locker
"./ssvr.sh" [/quote] is creating forks/multiple instances of the bash
shell running the ssvr.sh script.

If it does, how to eradicate the fork? How to manipulate the line?
Would the line  xautolock -time 1 -locker "xset dpms force off" create
similar forks / multiple instances of the bash shell? Usurp more
memory space.

I have a hunch that either the script file ./ssvr.sh, run from
terminal, or the xautolock line with direct xset dpms ... won't create
forks, but the xautolock line with ./ssvr.sh will do.

Please feel free to advise.

Best.
