Yes!</title><link>http://www.duckland.org/posts/200611screen-saver-yes.html</link><dc:creator>Don Harper</dc:creator><description>&lt;h1&gt;Screen Saver?  Yes!&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So, a while back I found a screensaver which is meant for the command&lt;br&gt;
line. It is called &lt;a href="http://www.pulia.nu/tss/"&gt;tss&lt;/a&gt;. The&lt;br&gt;
latest version is 0.8.1, and it is looking pretty cool.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Under screen 4.0 or higher, there is a command called idle which is&lt;br&gt;
set in seconds. By default, it uses screen’s built in lockscreen&lt;br&gt;
function, but if you define the environment variable LOCKPGR, then you&lt;br&gt;
can call something else. I have it call a the following script:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;#!/bin/bash

tss -r
exec vlock -a
&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This will lock my screen after a set time, and give me a nice thing to&lt;br&gt;
look at. &lt;img alt=":)" src="http://www.duckland.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><category>cli</category><category>screensaver</category><category>software</category><guid>http://www.duckland.org/posts/200611screen-saver-yes.html</guid><pubDate>Thu, 23 Nov 2006 23:11:00 GMT</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
