keep program running
Hi
I have a win.scr that I like and run with wine.--wine /path/file.scr -s
but it does not run long...sensitive mouse I guess
is there a command or commands to keep it running until a mouse CLICK or KEY press. I cannot seem to figure it out...been reading lots
thanks
edit:
this may require a script if a command is not possible
but although I am reading a lot of text the answer is miles away
bin#bash!
/path/file.scr -s
if input $ ; then exit
elseif stay running
LOL ya that works...NOT
If it helps I have a linux saver as desktop wallpaper but I like this classic freeare occasionally.. but at that time I would like it to stay running until input
adding:
well I guess that's not going to happen...

I am not sure if I understand it correctly. The problem is that the screensaver plays and then stops, isn't it? If that's the case, then you can make a loop to launch it ad infinitum, though I have really no idea how will that look or how it would perform. I really never tried wine for this thing.
Implementing a sentinel daemon that watches for keyboard/mouse activity and launches the relevant command wouldn't be a trivial task, though, and while there are native linux screensavers, I don't see a need either. Anyway, my favourite screensaver has been ported to all the OSs: the black screen.
