! See "man xscreensaver" for more info. The latest version is always
! available at http://www.jwz.org/xscreensaver/
! The "helpURL" will be substituted for up to two occurrences of "%s".
*loadURL: netscape -remote 'openURL(%s)' || netscape '%s'
+! This is what the "Manual" button in xscreensaver-demo runs (/bin/sh syntax.)
+*manualCommand: xterm +sb -fg black -bg gray75 -T '%s manual' \
+ -e /bin/sh -c 'man "%s" || read'
+! Gnome folks might prefer this:
+!*manualCommand: gnome-help-browser 'man:%s'
+
! The format used for printing the date and time in the password dialog box
! (see the strftime(3) manual page for details.)

-! Some other programs that you might want to track down (these work as
-! XScreenSaver helpers, but are not distributed with it):

-! xtacy is ok, but it only works on the default visual. We can satisfy
-! that constraint like so:
-!
-! default: "Xtacy (funky)" xtacy -root -delay 100 -funky -number 3 \n\
-! default: "Xtacy (grav)" xtacy -root -delay 100 -gravity \n\
-! default: "Xtacy (mixer)" xtacy -root -delay 100 -mixer \n\
-! default: "Xtacy (taffy)" xtacy -root -delay 100 -taffy -pal 4 \n\
-!
! To display a randomized slideshow of images, you can do something like this:
!
! default-n: "Slideshow" xv -root -rmode 5 -random -viewonly \
! (meaning, "-visual default -install") but you probably won't ever need
! to use that.
!
-! XEarth is nice, too:
-!
-! default-n: xearth -nostars -wait 0 -timewarp 400 -pos sunrel/38/-30
-!
!
! Some of the GL demos that SGI ships work with XScreenSaver; most don't.
! XScreenSaver includes a program (not built or installed by default)
!
! You can also use the "ant" demo, but first you need to wrap a shell script
! around it that cds to its home directory, so that it can find its files;
-! and also pass it the -S argument, to prevent it from forking.
-!
-!
-! Also, since these actually end up mapping their own windows instead of
-! drawing on the XScreenSaver-provided root, when they are being run from
-! demo-mode, you can't pop up the demo-mode dialog just by clicking the
-! mouse: you must first type ESC to make the SGI programs exit. This sucks.
-! Things should work properly when they are being run by xscreensaver in
-! non-demo-mode, however.
-!
+! and also pass it the -S argument, to prevent it from forking. What a mess!
! Basically, the SGI demo writers went out of their way to make my life hell.
