  Okay, I'm just posting this question for a friend and I never read this
group, so I have no idea if this question has been thrashed around already.
  To save bandwidth and your time, we are simply looking for a program that
will cause an IBM PS/2 to "fall asleep", ie. blank out the screen, after a
certain time.  We would like a program that will work all the time, even if
another program is already running.  To add to the requirements for this
program, I would also like it to be PD, okay?  We're too cheap to spend
money on such simple delights.
  Does such a thing exist for IBMs?  I'm sure it must.  I myself use Macs
and there are _too many_ screen savers for Macs.  Please send me by mail
your answers to my question.  In your answer, please include the name of the
program (no, really?) and where it can be acquired.
  Thanks in advance.
