Screen saver

[Chipp Walters]

Found this at groups.google.com:

"But to answer your question: any executable that performs a screen saver
function can be renamed to a .scr and Windows should automatically run it if
you put it in the same dir as all the other .scr files are. Under Windows 95
there are some built-in command-line parameters you might want to
incorporate
(-c for configure screen saver, -a for change password, -s to run screen
saver
NOW)

Hi list,

I already posted that question a few months ago, but am
wondering if anyone has done any new experiments in
that field : I'm working on the idea of a web app made of
a MC standalone, but because of the content & purpose
of that app, re-shaping it as a screen saver would be
much cooler...

I know there are several utilities (like screentime) to make
screensavers from QT, Flash or Director files. But what
about MC ?

The main idea behind my project would be to have the
app download the latest version of a data file somewhere
on the web everytime it launches, and have the display
contents automatically modified accordingly...

Thanks for any suggestion...

JB
