ColdSpot is a simple screen locker for X. When the mouse is left inside the transparent ColdSpot window, a user-specified program is kicked off to lock the screen. It is probably simplest to use with focus follows mouse or sloppy focus, although it should still work with click-to-focus.

Release Notes: This release has been autoconfiscated, so building it should be even easier than before. A new directive was also added to control how long ColdSpot waits before locking the screen.


Release Notes: Internal testing and development has been completed, so it should now be simple enough for people to use.
