blurlock: Lock the screen and don't hide the mouse pointer.
$ blurlock --pointer ${default}
try on your machine

The command "blurlock --pointer ${default}" is an instruction to execute the "blurlock" program with two options.

  • "--pointer" is an option that tells the program to display the mouse pointer on the lock screen.

  • "${default}" is a placeholder or variable that represents the default value for a specific setting. In this case, it is used to specify that the program should use the default mouse pointer setting.

So when this command is run, the "blurlock" program will be executed with the --pointer option, which will enable the display of the mouse pointer on the lock screen using the default setting.
