Screen Saver v. 2.00 (8/10/1997, Kai Uwe Rommel) | Readme/What's new |
This is the documentation for SCRUTIL.EXE and SCRBLANK.DLL, an
OS/2 Presentation Manager screen saver for OS/2 2.x.
There was an older version of this program that ran under OS/2 1.x but
this doesn't do so any longer.

This small program is a screen saver for OS/2 Presentation Manager
and in addition shows a small window with the current date and
time and amount of free memory.
Put SCRUTIL.EXE somewhere in your PATH or where you keep your
utility programs and SCRBLANK.DLL somewhere in your LIBPATH.
SCRBLANK.DLL needs IOPL because it uses hardware features of the
video cards to blank the screen(s). Set either IOPL=YES in CONFIG.SYS
or add SCRBLANK to your IOPL list.
You can start the program by entering the command "START SCRUTIL"
but you better put it the startup folder.
Initially, the program puts it's window in the upper right screen
corner, but you can move it wherever you want it. Click with the right
mouse button on it to get the context menu. From there on, the program
should be almost self-explaining. The "Lock" option means that you can
suspend the blanking function temporarily.
It is kind of an unfinished work and, given my amount of spare
time, will probably never be finished. It does what I need for the
hardware I use so, unfortunatley, I have little motivation to
spend more of my time for it.
The missing items are:
- no support for fullscreen DOS and Win-OS/2 sessions
- no support for DPMS blank/suspend modes, only for DPMS power off mode
The "Blank Screen" option does not use DPMS but hardware facilities to
turn the screen black, when possible. If the hardware does not support
this (or I did not know how it works), it will use a black PM window
to cover the screen. Generally, it can use hardware facilities only on
simple VGA/SVGA/S3 cards and otherwise only in 256 color modes where
it can use palette support.
The "Suspend" option is in the setup dialog but not implemented.
Source code is not included. But should anyone want to take over and
add some features, feel free to contact me.
