RISC OS "Screen savers have always been a staple free software for RISC OS, with the likes of the venerable Out to Lunch, AlphaSave, and the now GPLed Delirium all acting as saviours of the CRT for many years. However, it was not until RISC OS 4 that graphical screen saver capabilities shipped as a standard part of the OS." More here. Additionally, RPCEmu has been ported to the Mac OS X platform, allowing RISC OS 4 to run alongside Apple's shiny desktop.

...but I'd like to see RPCEmu's Linux version making more progress.

BTW, something I meant to ask the last time a RiscOS article came up...are there any RiscOS users out there in the US, Canada or Australia?

There's a good reason it's open source ;-) Get hacking.

It's "RISC OS", incidentally.

Right, sorry. Long time since I actually used it :-(
