Hi all,

   a few comments about the windows screensaver topic:

- in fullscreen mode, the directx/events.c is correctly getting
WM_SYSCOMMAND with SC_SCREENSAVE, so this solution works.

- in window mode, no WM_SYSCOMMAND is ever seen by events.c, so this
solution does not work

Tested on WinXP SP2 with Directx 9.0c and all recent updates.

BTW, if screensaver is disabled in the OS and only "Turn off monitor power" 
is used, everything works fine. However, it seems that WM_SYSCOMMAND with 
SC_MONITORPOWER is not seen by events.c - which perhaps means, that directx
video automatically disables monitor power-off at OS level ?

	With kind regards,

		M.
