Jurassic Park ScreenSaver

I was really surprised that I wasn't able to find a Jurassic Park look-a-like screensaver out there. My first thought was of course "this is not possible", and maybe I just searched bad. But whatever, if it already exists, I hope you enjoy this version too.

More information on how to write a screensaver module can be found here

NOTE: this module has only been tested on my laptop

Installation

Compile by make:

make

Place the compiled program jurassicpark into a directory in your PATH. Add the module to the xscreensaver configuration file. This is done by creating a file .xscreensaver in your home directory. For a single module, this contains a line like:

programs: simplesquares

If you already have an .xscreensaver file, it will probably look something like this:

[...]
- GL: 				cubetwist -root				    \n\
- GL: 				discoball -root				    \n\
- GL: 				hexstrut -root				    \n\
- GL: 				splodesic -root				    \n\
- GL: 				jurassicpark -root		    \n\   <-- the line to add
[...]

If you like this project, consider buying me a beer (if we meet, because I still need to set this up) :)

Cheers!
