AfterDark by Berkley systems is the originator (first for mac then for windows) dates back to @ 1990 (win 3.11 for you whippersnappers) :P

I'm sorry but I just had to tell you that Icons, did not come from Apple, it was first done under BeOS, and Apple decided to mimic the screensaver, as a former BeOS user I just had to let the truth be known, so how about giving credit where credit is due.

Here's the output I get:

^^^^^^^^
hard work to learn! so don't spoil my
english *g*...

OK, I'm afraid I got the same results...
Is there anything to be careful about? (Libs, includes, anything non-standard-KDE?)

OK, I'm about to open my eyes earlier next time...

math.h in Icons.cpp

CU

Yeah, there's a bug in the src/Icon.cpp file - Apparently, math.h is automagically included in my headers somewhere - If you add the line


#include <math.h>


(that's (LESS THAN)math.h(GREATER THAN) in standard #include format)


then it should compile. I keep meaning to fix that and re-release it, but want to whack a couple of other things first. My apologies for the trouble.


:) -dT-

In the future we will have this screensaver with animated icons ;)

thanks.
