Hi all - Atama software developer here.

You may have heard of our Sesame proximity key (http://atama.io/sesame2), which locks your Mac when you walk away (saving you dubious posts on your FaceBook account) and unlocks it when you come back (saving you the drag of entering a password).

The app that comes with the hardware has now been updated to include Apple Script support Sesame 2.2 is now out with support for AppleScript.

We’ve just released v.2.2 of the app, which adds Apple Script support. We have some example scripts that you can use to get you started, such as:

Mute, Pause iTunes, Pause Spotify, Set Skype Away

Custom scripts can easily be added and assigned to lock / unlock events by adding a .scpt file.

Now it's your turn to see what you can come up with. Have a great idea for a script that fires when you lock / unlock your machine? Head over to https://atama.io/sesamegiveaway and enter our competition for a chance to win a free Sesame2 unit and have your script added to the app for everyone to enjoy!




Do you know if this works with Knock?
