Quote:Small screensaver program that acts much like the old Windows Marquee screensaver, but with some very neat changes!

NOTE: You can also change the text that's on the srceen by typing it while the program is running! This is useful when you have a family computer Smile

For best results, extract directly to your directory root.
Heheheh....

You should make a simple typing game with that.

Something like this: Random phrases or quotes appear at the top of the screen, and your marquee scrolls by at the bottom of the screen. You have to type as many of the quotes / phrases as you can before your marquee's cursor scrolls off the left side of the screen. You get points for each letter typed correctly and each phrase finished. If you get a certain number of points, say 1000, it speeds up a little bit. It definitely wouldn't be too hard to make, and could be pretty addictive.

I dunno, just a thought.
Wow I thought quickhost was forgotten about Smile.

Anyway, I'll check out the screensaver later.

Doesn't bother me that you used it, I'm glad it still serves some purpose.
