Greetings to all.
I just signed up. So I am not sure really how long I will be on. I do anticipate many hours spent here. I have been browsing the last day or so. I am really liking what I see. I will spread the word.
I'm surprised past searches for unix/linux matters did not turn this site up for me in the past. Glad I finally got here. I guess it was one of those - too obvious to notice - things *shrug*.
Cheers!

lcdscrub(6x) XScreenSaver manual lcdscrub(6x)
NAME
lcdscrub - attempt to repair burn-in on LCD screens
SYNOPSIS
lcdscrub [-display host:display.screen] [-visual visual] [-window] [-root] [-delay number] [-spread number] [-cycles number] [-fps]
DESCRIPTION
This screen saver is not meant to look pretty, but rather, to repair burn-in on LCD monitors.
Believe it or not, screen burn is not a thing of the past. It can happen to LCD screens pretty easily, even in this modern age. However,
leaving the screen on and displaying high contrast images can often repair the damage. That's what this screen saver does.
