Hi am trying to make a programmed screen saver through xcode. I have the latest version (i believe (the one with tiger)) but i dont know what i need to learn and i dont know where to put anything. I am a complete mess. Could anyone help me by giving me some links or whatever so that i could program my own screnn saver. I have not done this thing before so i do not know who to do it!

Thanks,
R.R.Mac

;) ;) ;)

Writing a Screen Saver Module

One small change to that tutorial is instead of choosing Bundle > Cocoa Bundle, you can choose Standard Apple Plug-ins > Screen Saver, and it will set up a generic screensaver that will compile.

Thanks but i do not have a 'tab' to refer to making my life quite difficult because i can not find the expert build settings :( .

i might have a newer version or an older one, how would i check?

Thanks
