Some files are bogus !! (they have a long line of -null chars at the end). These files are under -SYS$COMMON:[DECW$INCLUDE.BITMAPS] directory: - -STIPPLE.XBM -HLINES2.XBM -LIGHT_GRAY.XBM -ROOT_WEAVES.XBM -VLINES2.XBM - -These files are all used by Greynetic demo. - -Nota: link procedure automagically select appropriate X and Motif Libraries -(X11R4/Motif 1.1 - X11R5/Motif 1.2). - -The SETUP.COM procedure gives you a definition of all DCL foreign command -symbols needed to run Xscreensaver and all the graphic hacks. You need to -modify this procedure if you install these programs in another directory tree. - -You can easily add new graphic demos without recompiling Xscreensaver. You just -need to add them in resource file XSCREENSAVER.DAT. This file (originally -present in [.DRIVER] directory ) can be installed under your SYS$LOGIN -directory for a per-user customization basis. You can also install it under -the system-wide user resource directory SYS$COMMON:[DECW$DEFAULT.USER] -(with (W:RE) protections). The new graphics hack must be run in root-window -mode to be accepted by Xscreensaver. - -The graphic demos are spawn into subprocess created by the system() call (in -the Unix version the execvp() call is used). - -The VMS passord checking programs were picked up in the Xlock distribution. - -Enjoy, - -Patrick MOREAU - CENA/Athis-Mons - FRANCE (pmoreau@cena.dgac.fr) - (moreau_p@decus.decus.fr) |
