12 blueproximity helps you adding a little more security to your desktop.
13 It does so by detecting one of your bluetooth devices, most likely your
14 mobile phone, and keeping track of its distance. If you move away from
15 your computer and the distance is above a certain level (no measureā
16 mentin meters is possible) for a given time, it automatically locks
17 your desktop (or starts any other shell command you want). Once away,
18 if you return nearer than a given level for a set time your computer
19 unlocks magically without any interaction (or starts any other shell
20 command you want).
