The command "tomb lock ${encrypted_directory-tomb} -k ${encrypted_directory-tomb-key}" is used to lock an encrypted directory using the Tomb encryption software.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "tomb lock" is the main command used to lock the encrypted directory.
- "${encrypted_directory-tomb}" is a placeholder for the name or path of the encrypted directory you want to lock. You need to replace it with the actual path or name of the directory.
- "-k" is an option flag used to specify the key file to be used for unlocking the tomb.
- "${encrypted_directory-tomb-key}" is a placeholder for the name or path of the key file. You need to replace it with the actual path or name of the key file.
So, when executed, this command will lock the specified encrypted directory using the provided key file.
