Short: CyberGfx-ScreenBlanker with DPMS
Author: stefan.robl@tirnet.de (Stefan Robl)
Uploader: stefan.robl@tirnet.de (Stefan Robl)
Version: 1.00
Type: util/blank
Description
-----------
CGXBlanker is a small ScreenBlanker for computers equipped with a
CyberGraphics/Picasso96-supporting Gfx-Board.
The blanker currently has the following Blanker-Modules:
- Black : just a black screen... ;)
- Moire : the classic colorful moire-blanker
- Forest : colorful fractal trees
- Spiral : an incredible rotating spiral
- Random : one of the blankers above is randomly chosen (except Black)
CGXBlanker also supports the DPMS energy-saving methods of modern
monitors. You can enable/disable this option and control the delay
before the blanker switches to the DPMS mode.
This blanker is a system-friendly commodity and you also have
keyboard shortcuts for immediate blanking, immediate DPMS and quit.

The following tooltypes are supported:
BLANKKEY : <SHIFT F1> -> shortcut for immediate blanking
DPMSKEY : <SHIFT F2> -> shortcut for immediate DPMS
