If you mount them with a shell command, you could write a wrapper shell script
that you invoke instead of that command, like such:
You previously did
$ truemount /dev/sda3 /encrypted
You write a shell script:
-----8<---cut here--->8-----
#!/bin/sh
truemount "$1" "$2"
find "$2"/'*.lock' -delete
-----8<---cut here--->8-----
Call this shell script mytrue, or such, and from now on use
$ mytrue /dev/sda3 /encrypted
Please don't use this actual script. It needs a whole bunch of extra safeguards
because the find/delete command is so destructive.
Just an idea. Good luck.
Peter.
PS: I haven't ever used truecrypt, I just invented a command name :).
