I didn't figure it would be all that hard.  In addition to what you noted, I
would also need a version of the configuration panel which allowed you to
select a file to display, as well as (preferably) a way to select the
full-screen resolution used by the screensaver.  In addition, all the
options would preferably be kept distinct from the LDView app itself so you
could configure the screensaver differently than the app.

Second, since the source is available, a Windows developer who knows how • to

this myself eventually, but haven't had time to do so yet.  Never having

It's fairly easy to make a Windows screensaver.  There are a few API calls
to make and catch, but mostly you just compile to a .SCR extension, and
stop your program where there is keyboard or mouse activity.
