I start xwrits out of my .xsession script like this:

xwrits okp=/home/itz/xwrits/blank.gif +lock +cheat +iconified

When it fires up, the screen is locked and filled with the bars pattern
as expected.  I then type the so called password "quit" which unlocks
the screen and removes the bars pattern, also as expected.  However, the
warning window is now on and stays on, no matter how much I type, which
contradicts what the manpage says about `+cheat'.  And, the window should
have not been visible in the first place due to `+iconified'.
