betterlockscreen: Lock the screen, showing some custom text.
$ betterlockscreen -l pixel -t "${custom lock screen text}"
try on your machine

The command "betterlockscreen -l pixel -t "${custom lock screen text}"" is used to set a custom lock screen text using the BetterLockscreen application with the "pixel" theme.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

  • "betterlockscreen" is the name of the command or application being executed.
  • "-l pixel" specifies the theme to be used. In this case, it is set to the "pixel" theme.
  • "-t "${custom lock screen text}"" is used to define the custom lock screen text that will be displayed on the lock screen. You need to replace "${custom lock screen text}" with the actual text you want to display.

So when you run this command, BetterLockscreen will set the lock screen text to the specified custom text using the "pixel" theme.
