Re: DLLs

There is no dll containing DefScreenSaverProc . It exists only as an
entry point in a static .lib which can be linked when using the
Microsoft
C compiler tool chain.

It isn't really needed -- see the screensaver.f file in the SwiftForth
distribution. Also, you can reference the assembly language tutorial
http://www.rbthomas.freeserve.co.uk/SSaveKit.zip . Be sure to browse
the rest of Ron Thomas' web site for useful information. Remember that
programming in SwiftForth can be akin to assembly language on steriods.

The microsoft
description page shows what messages it expects to handle and what
should
be done with them. I'll leave that implementation as an exercise for
the reader.
