has been periodically maintained by others for 9 months in any case. * Upgrade 3.26 -> 3.29 * Specify full path to fortune, since many of the screen saver programs could not find it on their own. * Fix the -lpthread -> -pthread problem. * Re-generate patch files. * Eliminate patch-ae, whose only purpose in life was to prevent the building and installation of the xscreensaver-demo program which, in addition to being the method used to configure the server and all the little screensaver programs; works just fine, and doesn't actually hurt anything. The report in the PR is a little out of date with reference to the latest xscreensaver version, but all parts of the thing are working for me now in any case.

Xscreensaver will run several programs to continuously update the
|
|
screen instead of going blank. You can specify the programs and their
|
|
arguments using resources. You can also add dpms (power saver) options.
|
|
|
|
Xscreensaver will make use of any installed OpenGL libraries, such as
|
|
Mesa (also in the ports collection).
|
|
|
|
The client-server model employed by xscreensaver make it a superior choice
|
|
to xlock, since no seperate auto-locking program is needed. It's also
|
|
extremely easy to add new programs like xearth, or any other program that
|
|
can fill the root window as additional screensavers.
