The replies recommended the following:
idled 2
acct 2
BSM 1
rusers & cron 1
prwhod 1
Unfortunately none of the recommended solutions would do all I need.
I finally rolled up my sleeves, grabbed the old "xswarm" screen blanker
(written by Jeff Butterworth) and hacked it. It seems to be working fine
doing just what I want.
If anybody's interested please let me know, I'll e-mail the code.
