Hi Ray,
Thanks for the tip, but more spefically I was trying to figure out how to
run the pipes program as my screen saver alone.
I can run pipes -root, but that clears out my root window and doesn't
seem to re-establish it when I move the mouse or use the keyboard. It
simply uses pipes as the root window.
If you or anyone else has any information on how to get pipes to run as a
screen saver I would sure appreciate knowing how to invoke it. Thanks.
