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
