I would like to try to port it to C and make it a screensaver. Also it
could give me a chance why programs that use the Allegro Library aren't
working in ReactOS.<br>

and the source code is about 20KB in size (not including the DirectDraw interface
code). If someone wants to rewrite it in C and make it a screensaver, I'll be
happy to send you the source code.

Subject: [ros-dev] screensavers
I know that this is fluff, but I would like to contribute a good, honest
attempt at making a screensaver program for ReactOS. Basically, what I
am looking for is how is the API set up for ReactOS to write programs
for it? I am familiar with writing programs for Windows, and I know the
basic ins and outs of making a screensaver for
Windows (including it's registry settings), however there is some API
specific code that I need in order to give this a shot.
Do you guys have a reference of some kind as to what API functions,
constants, etc. that you have implemented in ReactOS that mirror those
of Windows?
Thanks in advance, and if there isn't enough in ReactOS yet for me to
try this out yet, then I'll try to help on something else that I would
be capable of.
And I must say, and I'm not trying to kiss ass here, but I really
appreciate what you guys are working at here. Keep it up.
Kenneth Armstrong
