Right!
i got to test this still on my NextClock
(available at my site www.monsieurx.com - finding it is part of the game!)
enjoy, improve, enjoy more, share improvements,
We enjoy, we improve, we receive more, we enjoy more!

To make it work when the application is in the
background, make sure your stack is the topstack
or it wont receive the idle events (or make sure some
stack sends it the idle message or send the
launch screen saver to another stack... use your
imagination as to how to launch it!

on idle
if idleInterupted then
put the time into timestartidle
pass idle
end if
if the time - timestartidle > gIdleB4ScreenSaver then
LaunchScreenSaver
end if
put the startidle timesend launchScreenSaver in 5 minutes
end idle
on keydown
put true into idleinterupted
pass keydown
end keydown
-- do same thing as keydown for
on mousemove
on mousedown
on videoinChange
on soundin
on LaunchScreenSaver
put the mouseloc into ml
repeat while not then keydown or the mousedown or the mouseloc <> ml
-- paste creative stuff here
end repeat
put true into
end LaunchScreenSaver

Further to my previous reply, for a Mac solution take a look at
http://www.stclairsw.com/
for AutoLaunch. Its been a while since I used it but I remember it launches
any app after an idle period. So there's no reason why that app can't be
created in MC.
