- SAVESCRN
-
- A DELPHI screensaver template complete with source
- Version 1.0
-
-
- Overview
- ========
-
- This program demonstrates how to write a simple Windows Screensaver using the
- new DELPHI Visual language from Borland Inc. All the source for the program has
- been included with the distribution. En example Screensaver is also included,
- it is called SAVESCRN.SCR.
-
- Installation
- ============
-
- Place the file SAVESCRN.SCR in your windows directory, typically c:\windows. Start
- up the control panel (found in the Main program manager folder) and choose 'Desktop'.
- A screen saver called 'Bizare flying box' should now be in the list of screensavers.
- You can test it by pressing the button 'Test' or 'Config' to get more info on it.
-
- Source: Place all the code in a single directory. Start up DELPHI and select open. You
- can now select one of two files: SAVESCRN or FIX. SAVESCRN is the example screesaver but
- fix is a small program required to fix the screensaver program once it is done.
-
- FIX: To use fix do the following. Start by compiling your screesaver program. Run the
- fix program. Select your newly compiled program, give it a name and press the button
- 'Fix the file'. Your EXE file will be fixed and renamed to have the extension '.SCR'. If
- there is already a file with that name in the directory you will have to rename it
- yourself. Place the SCR file in your windows directory and your new screensaver will
- show up in the control panel.
-
- Registration
- ============
-
- There is no registration. The program is free for all to use. However if you like it
- and think that it has been of help to you then please send $5 (or more) to the below
- address. IT IS COMPLETLY OPTIONAL but would be appreciated.
