XActivateScreenSaver()					XActivateScreenSaver()

Name
  XActivateScreenSaver – activate screen blanking.

Synopsis
  XActivateScreenSaver(display)
	Display *display;

Arguments
  display   Specifies	a  connection  to  an  X  server;  returned  from
	    XOpenDisplay().

Description
  XActivateScreenSaver() turns on the screen saver using  the  parameters
  set  with  XSetScreenSaver().	  The  screen  saver blanks the screen or
  makes random changes to the display in order to save the phosphors from
  burnout  when	 the  screen is left unattended for an extended period of
  time.	 The interval that the server will wait	 before	 starting  screen
  save	activity  can  be  set	with  XSetScreenSaver().  Exactly how the
  screen saver works is server-dependent.

  For more information on the screen saver, see Volume One,  Chapter  15,
  Other Programming Techniques.
