This one seems interesting. I will play around with it. It would be nice to have the awaking of the screensaver initiate the applescript/ rev app.

Tom,
even shorter would be:
-------------------------
tell application "System Events" to return ("ScreenSaverEngine" is in (name
of every process))
-------------------------
returns true or false

Tom,
I dont know about shell but I found a way to query whether the screensaver is on or not. You would have to query the screensaver repeatedly with a
script though.
I found the basics on macscripter.net
to try it out:
--------------
delay 4 -- to let the screensaver start
tell application "System Events" to set v_proclist to name of every
process
set myScreen to false
repeat with aProcess in v_proclist
        if (aProcess is in {"ScreenSaverEngine"}) then
                set myScreen to true
                say "yes, screen saver is on"
        end if
end repeat
if not myScreen then say "no screesaver is running"
