	Amilock is a series of programs which demonstrates inter process
communications, as well as the use of interrupt handlers.  The interrupt
handlers are used to disable/limit keyboard and mouse inputs, thereby
allowing the console to be 'frozen' the mouse can still move, but no
mouse clicks are possible.

	The program does not black out the screen, but any blanker can
be run in background and will function properly, any other program can
also run and swap screens etc, however the program will ensure that the
keyboard and mouse buttons appear to be inactive from the point of view
of the other programs.
	
	Great to stop your children and others from using you machine
when you are running that great raytrace which you have spent hours
working on.

	The program can be overcome by the ctrl+Lamiga+RightAmiga, and
the power switch of course, but all other bypasses have been removed.
