Lock screen with password on a per-use basis
Thanks for the hint, it was inspiring, since I was looking for a similar solution to a slightly different problem. When I am home or work I do not want to enter the password to unlock the laptop every time, assuming it's "safe". On the other hand, when I'm on the road, I want the laptop to be locked at max security, in order to give (at least) some hard time to those wo got it from me.
My solution was to create two simple applescripts (copied from Apple's website) to lock and unlock the security settings. I have then created two applications using the Script Editor and put them in a folder that I later dropped on my Dock.
Here you are the scripts, in case you're interested and you don't bother to look it up on Apple's website:
