Hello Damian,

I am still new to using DJGPP so I cannot tell
you if there is an elegant way to do it, but you
could write a "screen saver" type app for Windows
in any language/compiler that supports Windows
and have it execute your DJGPP program with
a shell type call.  (I know this is kludgy but it would
work. ;-)
