There's been some discussion about whether it's possible to write a screensaver for OSX in Revolution. The difficulty has been to hook into the OSX screensaver framework. However, I thought it shouldn't be that hard to write it as a standalone application. So with that in mind, I've written OSX Screensaver entirely in Transcript (with a couple of lines of Applescript thrown in) and posted it to my RevOnline user area (designeq).
This screensaver plays a Quicktime-compatible movie when the screensaver evokes, after the preset idle-time. Any movement of the mouse or keyboard entry returns you to your regularly-scheduled program. It's got a few other goodies, like hot-corners, the ability to play the movie at original size or full-screen and volume adjustment. Please feel free to take a look and try it out. I'm particularly looking for bug reports. I was amazed and impressed with Revolution's ability to build a tool like this. -- Regards, Howard Bornstein ----------------------- www.designeq.com _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
