Implement lock command

[radare]

idea from @condret

lock password

the command will not be stored in the history and will clear the screen and ask for password. it will not unlock the console until the password matches.

That sounds really useless . . . CC @XVilka

https://github.com/radare/radare2/issues/5132 is useful, lock is not.

[XVilka]

Ehm. What for?

[XVilka]

There are plenty of external tools for locking screen or particular terminal, for all kind of operating systems. I don't see a reason why it should be implemented in radare2.

The same goes for having ls, cat.. its useful when u are using it not in your comfy desktop

Also opens the door to have tutorials about bypassing password protection as a crackme

Well that's just a if/else and there is already an issue open for that iirc.

I'm trying :P

[radare]

useful when using r2 as init replacement

[Maijin]

what

[XVilka]

Can be this closed?

[radare]

Nope. Seems handy for me. It must ignore ^z. And also ive been thinking in adding file and process lock commands. Something like "wait untils this file exists", or wait until a process with this name exists.. some kind of wait+test shell

[Maijin]

I've seen this has been done.
