- DARKLORD is DarkLord v.3.10 by Dr. Steve Pedler. This is a programmable,
- extensible screen saver for the Atari series of computers (dated Feb.
- 26, 1994). This highly configurable screensaver is ST-Falcon, MultiTOS
- and Geneva, and any res. compatible (it can use SpeedoGDOS if
- installed, too). I really enjoyed playing around with this .ACC/.PRG
- screensaver! Right now I usually use the screensaver integral with
- Silkmouse (get that mouse accelerator and more!), but that's just plain
- and simple, with not much much fancy at all. I also use the
- Extend-O-Save feature of Warp 9 for a wide range of vivid and fun screen
- animations as screen savers. "Before Dawn" is excellent, too. But
- unlike those screensavers, DarkLord uses the VDI for screen output, and
- external screensaver modules can be written in C, as well as in
- assembly. This should make the production of external modules much
- easier and provide a much wider range of different effects. Almost all
- the features of the VDI are available. Docs, source code, and a
- DarkLord Construction Kit program are included. Seven screensaver
- modules are included. My favorite is the one that allows me to put the
- message bouncing around the screen, "I love Susan Burkley" (or other
- appropriate messages!). EXTENSIVE docs. I recommend this program
- highly.
