I believe screensavers are nothing more than exe files that respond to
different switches. IIRC there is nothing else different about a
screensaver. If you'd like the source, i might be able to dig it up.
That being said, it's been YEARS (Windows 95 anyone? :P) since i've done
it, so if i am mistaken, i apologize.

I know that this is fluff, but I would like to
contribute a good,
honest attempt at making a screensaver program for ReactOS.
Basically, what I am looking for is how is the API set up for ReactOS
to write programs for it? I am familiar with writing programs for
Windows, and I know the basic ins and outs of making a screensaver for
Windows (including it's registry settings), however there is some API
specific code that I need in order to give this a shot.
Do you guys have a reference of some kind as to what API functions,
constants, etc. that you have implemented in ReactOS that mirror those
of Windows?
Thanks in advance, and if there isn't enough in ReactOS yet for me to
try this out yet, then I'll try to help on something else that I would
be capable of.
And I must say, and I'm not trying to kiss ass here, but I really
appreciate what you guys are working at here. Keep it up.
