These are available, along with other files that maybe needed, from the library section of our homepage: http://www.csc.liv.ac.uk/~u5ms/tektonix/index.html BACKGROUND------------------------------------------------------------------- Screen savers stop phosphor burn in on your monitor. This is when a residual image of your display can be seen if the same image is on screen for long periods of time. This effect/problem can be seen at train stations. OPTIONS---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can vary the severity of the wobble, from a slight judder to a near earthquake shake. You can also Unwobble the screen every so often, which starts the whole process again. Also invert the screen colours if you want, in a number of different ways. Configuration now supports context sensitive help and desktop preview. SPECIFICATIONS--------------------------------------------------------------- Wobble! achieves nearly a thousand wobbles every second.* However, this speed varies when screen size or colour resolution, or indeed the speed and type of the host computer are taken into account. * Tested on a 8MB 486 DX50, with Cirrus Logic 5428 in 640x480x256 resolution.
