Screen Saver
Version 3.0
Copyright (c) 1989, 1990, 1991 by Silicon Systems
Screen Saver is a memory resident utility that blanks the
screen after a period of inactivity determined by the user.
However, unlike other screen blanking utilities, Screen
Saver displays a clock on the screen and moves it randomly
across the screen during the period of inactivity. This
informs the user that the monitor is powered on (screen
blanking alone could lead to the assumption that the monitor
is powered off).
To run Screen Saver type :
SCRNSAVE <xx> <NOENABLE> <color> <video>
The parameters are defined as :
<xx> : an optional time parameter specifiying the
number of minutes of inactivity before
screen blanking will occur.
(Default is 5 minutes)
<NOENABLE> : Disable the installed screensaver.
(Default is ENABLE)
<color> : An optional color parameter which allows
the user to define the color of the clock.
Valid Colors are :
BLUE LTBLUE
GREEN LTGREEN
CYAN LTCYAN
RED LTRED
MAGENTA LTMAGENTA
YELLOW LTYELLOW
GREY WHITE
(Colors not valid when selecting Monochrome)
(Default is RED when selection Non-Monochrome)
<video> : The type of video equipment that is installed.
The choices are :
- MONO
- CGA
- EGA
- VGA
(Default is VGA)
Screen Saver may also be activated by pressing a special
Hotkey combination. This combination is ALT-SHIFT.
*Note - Some programs which must have exclusive control over the
mouse (such as Desqview) will disable the mouse for the
Screen Saver. If this happens, re-install screen saver
after exiting the program and the mouse will function
correctly for the Screen Saver.
