not a screensaver? - Graham Cox

It may, though it's not as easy as it looks. OS X screensavers have to be special Cocoa subclasses, but this code is a CFM C++ app which bears no relation to Cocoa. I may rewrite it to work that way, but it will be a while yet.

Note, while running, this display will actually prevent a screensaver from kicking in, so you can run it "manually" as a screensaver. Of course that's not quite the same thing.
