ShowMe Saver is a DOS text mode 'MESSAGE' screen saver that will
protect your monitor from costly 'ghosting' and 'burn-in' damage
caused by leaving the same image displayed for long periods of
time. ShowMe Saver accomplishes this by watching for periods of
keyboard and/or mouse inactivity and popping up one of its
sixty-four (64) graphic saver modules if it detects no key-
strokes or mouse button presses for a period of time which you
select. ShowMe Saver is aware of printer, disk, and modem
activity and will not pop up over a long print job, a disk
operation, or a file transfer in a commu- nications program.
ShowMe Saver is a swapping TSR and will optionally swap most of
itself to either (EMS) expanded memory, (XMS) extended memory or
to hard disk, leaving only a small kernel of about 7K resident
in low DOS ram. When ShowMe Saver activates, a random saver
module pops up. Each module incorporates a message of your
choice (up to 12 characters). Many of the modules use amusing
animated sequences; all are colorful and contain changing
graphical sequences. Animated scenes include a rocket, an
airplane, a wooly worm, a wrist watch, a lawn mower, a fractal
summertime scene, and many more. ShowMe Saver also includes a
password option to lock your machine when you are away. The
program can be configured from the command line or from a pop-up
configuration window, and the hot-keys and the default password
can be changed to suit your system.
Hardware Requirements: An IBM PC or Compatible, an EGA or VGA color monitor
with a color graphics card, 460K RAM, Hard Disk,
Expanded (EMS) or Extended (XMS) memory optional.
Other Requirements: DOS 3.X or higher.
