Does anyone know where I may obtain code to perform a screen saver type of
operation within a program?

What I am looking for is something that will blank the screen if the
user of the program I am writing has been inactive for a few minutes. 
I'm looking for
a routine that will work with every type of display (from Mono to Color VGA).

Thanks in advance for your replies.
