BACKGROUND-------------------------------------------------------------------
Screen savers stop phosphor burn in on your monitor. This is when a residual
image of your display can be seen if the same image is on screen for long
periods of time. This effect/problem can be seen at train stations.
OPTIONS----------------------------------------------------------------------
You can change the direction of star travel, combining directions to get
diagonals. Configuration supports context sensitive help and desktop preview.
