Implement automatic screen locking prior to sleep
Authored by: mattbrink on Jul 17, '03 11:24:42AM
I was in a similar situation but I wanted to be able to manually sleep+lock the machine (usually overnight.) I created this Applescript to do the job. (Not as cool as the solution above but it is a bit simpler.)

tell application "ScreenSaverEngine" to run
delay 5
tell application "Finder"
sleep
end tell
