F.O.Y.D. Fog On Your Desk - version 1.2
Pseudo English instruction file
---------------------------------------
1. Why FOYD?
I write FOYD during my lunch breaks, so it is not a "state
of the art" screen saver; it's freeware (I will be happy if
you send me a postcard) and if somebody wants its C source
code (I hope you will use it to develop better screen savers)
I will send it by e-mail for free.
2. Installation
Win95: right click on FOYD.SCR and choose install.
WinNT 4.0: copy FOYD.SCR in your Windows NT directory,
right click on the desktop, select "Properties...", the
"Display Properties" dialog box should appear;
select "Screen Saver" tab and "Foyd" from the list of
available screen savers.
3. Configuration
Win '95:
Right click on the desktop and choose "Properties" from the
menu.
On the "Screen Saver" page use "Settings" to configure FOYD's
parameters or "Password protected" and "Change..." to set up
a password.
4. Notes
- (Win NT) on win NT the screen saver works only on Desktop
background, if you have a single color background, FOYD effect
is not visible.
- FOYD is happy to work even on my old 100MHz AMD486 but likes powerful
pentiums and 16-24bit colorful video modes (like on my new K6)!
- FOYD, like any other screen saver, can't really save your video,
if you want to save your video (and reduce your bills!), use the
energy saving features of your monitor and video card...
...but let FOYD play for some time!
- If you have other problems (ach!) feel free to contact
me by e-mail: vuemme@logic.it;
5. East Timor
If you like FOYD tell me by e-mail or (better) with a postcard.
But even if you don't like it I hope you can look at
"www.uc.pt/Timor/TimorNet.html" to know something about East Timor.
6. FOYD's source
FOYD's source code is available for free; you can request it via
e-mail and I will send it as soon as possible (I cannot check my
home e-mail everyday).
FOYD is built using SCRNSAVE.LIB, that's available with Microsoft's
compilers.
