I am looking for a screensaver that will:
- blank the screen after a settable number of seconds of inactivity
- make an image of my choice (in rasterfile format) 'jump' around the
screen while it is blank
- refresh the screen when:
- there is activity on the mouse
- there is activity on the keyboard
- when a named pipe has been written to
The last criterion is why I have been trying to write my own. I have had
some success, but the screen 'blank' and 'restore' routines leave much to
be desired. Therefore, I seek:
- A screen blanking routine and a screen refresh routine that work as well
as the ones used by 'lockscreen',
OR
- A screensaver program that does all of the above.
I am using Sun OS 3.5 on a 3/60 with 2 MB main memory and a 140 MB
Micropolis drive.
