Compile all C files to object files, then link them to an exe and then change the name of the exe to .scr and you got a screen saver.

Really?
There's a "Parameters..." button when you choose a screensaver from the "Display Properties" dialog box. It should open a popup which depends on the screensaver selected. Do you know what pressing this button does? I mean, what do I have to program in order to display a custom-made popup when the button is pressed and my screensaver is selected?

Then you'll need to do some windows programming...

Besides the winmain func, there should be another one, that I don't know the name of. I think it's listed at msdn somewhere.

Search for it, and I think you'll find it...

You'll need to make it a win32 app, and that's a little harder than a normal one.

Learn the winAPI and then try again.

this thread also has some discussions and links about that

http://www.codeguru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=346096&highlight=screen+savers

And if you go to www.codeproject.com and search for "screen savers" you will get links to several example programs and a couple tutorials.

[blue ... just wanted to add that clock as a screen saver is not a good idea, unless you move your clock around the screen. The hour digits will pretty much burn your screen... so you in effet will have screen burner [/blue]
