// This is a XScreenSaver compatible BOINC screensaver for Unix/X11.
//
// To use this screensaver, please add the following to the 'programs'
// preference in your .xscreensaver file:
//
// GL: "boincscr -root \n\"
//
// If your BOINC directory differs from /var/lib/boinc-client, you can use
// the -boinc_dir command line argument.
//
// When run, this screensaver connects to the BOINC client via RPC, asks for
// graphics providing tasks and starts a random graphics application. The window
// created by the graphics appliacation is then searched for using X11 window
// properties, such as "WM_COMMAND". Not every graphics application seems to
// support this, but this method has been successfully tested with Einstein@Home
// and climateprediction.net. When the graphics application window
// has been found, it will be embedded into the XScreenSaver-provided
// fullscreen-window, the root window, the preview window or a newly created
// window, depending on the environment, using the XEMBED method.
// These headers must be included before other
// headers to avoid compiler errors.
