Hi,
I'd like to implement a screen saver launcher.
I know that I can use the function "system()" to make the executable
launch a program, but a screen saver is an exe file renamed in a scr
file.
So my question is how can I make a program start a given screen saver
say foo.scr with possibly some command line options (the usual ones of a
screen saver)?

Sincerely yours,
Pasa Guglielmo
