NAME
blueproximity - locks/unlocks your desktop tracking a bluetooth device SYNOPSIS
blueproximity DESCRIPTION
blueproximity helps you adding a little more security to your desktop. It does so by detecting one of your bluetooth devices, most likely your mobile phone, and keeping track of its distance. If you move furter than a certain distance from your computer for longer than a given time, it automatically locks your desktop (or starts an arbitrary shell command). The "distance" must be specified as a measure of blue- tooth signal strength rather than in meters, but BlueProximity's setup procedure helps with this by showing you an indicator of current signal strength. Once away, if you return nearer than a given level for a set time your computer unlocks magically without any interaction (or starts any other shell command you want). Have a look at the package documentation in your distribution's doc directory, likely /usr/share/doc/blueproximity, to read the complete html manual or visit the website http://blueproximity.sourceforge.net . OPTIONS
blueproximity doesn't support any command-line parameter. FILES
~/.blueproximity/*.conf Config files for each profile. SEE ALSO

NAME
profile-manager - starts the gui for configuring the metadata used by desktop-profiles SYNOPSIS
profile-manager DESCRIPTION
The desktop profiles package needs metadata about the available profiles in order to decide when to activate which profiles. This metadata is contained in the .listing files placed in the /etc/desktop-profiles directory. This convenience script will start a graphical interface for configuring that metadata. The gui is a kommander script, so you need to have the kommander package installed for the gui to work (the script will check if the neces- sary prerequisites are present, and tell you what's missing if necessary). OPTIONS
There are no options FILES
/etc/desktop-profiles/*.listing - Files containing the metadata about installed profiles BUGS
The gui currently barks at profile metadata containing a single quote in the description. AUTHOR
