Lock Screen

By Will Norris | Published: July 18, 2005

Yet another application (locktight) that I’ve replaced with Quicksilver…

After reading the comments in this hint at macosxhints.com, I discovered this little bit of applescript.

tell application "ScreenSaverEngine" to activate

You’ll want to add this to a Quicksilver trigger so you can it from the keyboard (I use Cmd-Opt-Shift-L because that was the default in locktight and I’m kinda used to it)
