```
Lock keyboard and mouse (not the screen):
```
pyxtrlock
```
Unlock keyboard and mouse:

pkill pyxtrlock
```

Volume control

Plasma

Volume down:

qdbus org.kde.kglobalaccel /component/kmix invokeShortcut "decrease_volume"

Volume up:

qdbus org.kde.kglobalaccel /component/kmix invokeShortcut "increase_volume"

Mute:

qdbus org.kde.kglobalaccel /component/kmix invokeShortcut "mute"

Mute microphone:

qdbus org.kde.kglobalaccel /component/kmix invokeShortcut "mic_mute"

Other DE/WM (with pactl)

Volume down:

pactl set-sink-volume $(pactl list short sinks | grep RUNNING | cut -f1) -10%

Volume up:

pactl set-sink-volume $(pactl list short sinks | grep RUNNING | cut -f1) +10%

Mute/Unmute:

pactl set-sink-mute $(pactl list short sinks | grep RUNNING | cut -f1) toggle

Other DE/WM (with amixer)

Volume down:
```
amixer -q sset Master 10%-
```
Volume up:
```
amixer -q sset Master 10%+
```

Other commands can be built using amixer

Change look and feel

Breeze (Light) theme:

lookandfeeltool -a 'org.kde.breeze.desktop'

Breeze (Dark) theme:

lookandfeeltool -a 'org.kde.breezedark.desktop'

Brightness settings

Brightness Up:

qdbus org.kde.Solid.PowerManagement /org/kde/Solid/PowerManagement/Actions/BrightnessControl org.kde.Solid.PowerManagement.Actions.BrightnessControl.setBrightness $(expr $(qdbus org.kde.Solid.PowerManagement /org/kde/Solid/PowerManagement/Actions/BrightnessControl org.kde.Solid.PowerManagement.Actions.BrightnessControl.brightness) + 375)

Brightness Down:

qdbus org.kde.Solid.PowerManagement /org/kde/Solid/PowerManagement/Actions/BrightnessControl org.kde.Solid.PowerManagement.Actions.BrightnessControl.setBrightness $(expr $(qdbus org.kde.Solid.PowerManagement /org/kde/Solid/PowerManagement/Actions/BrightnessControl org.kde.Solid.PowerManagement.Actions.BrightnessControl.brightness) - 375)

Screenshot

Save locally:
```
spectacle -b
```

Send to phone:

file=/tmp/$(hostname)_$(date "+%Y%m%d_%H%M%S").png; spectacle -bo "${file}" && kdeconnect-cli -d $(kdeconnect-cli -a --id-only) --share ${file}
