Description
This is just a slide show screen saver.
This version is born after the merge of the works of Richard Shepherd (richard@rshepherd.demon.co.uk) and me.

Some features :
• Select directory : choose the pictures directory;
• Select delay : let you select the delay between pictures;
• Randomize order of the pictures;
• Always scaling : when selected will zoom any picture smaller than the screen size to fill it - respecting the aspect ratio. If a file is larger than the screen it will be shrunk to fit, regardless of the "Always scaling" option;
• Show filename : simply displays the picture's filename in the bottom left of the screen in the currently selected plain font.

Installation :
Put the SlideShowSaver executable into this folder : "/home/config/add-ons/Screen Savers/".
Launch the ScreenSaver application in the preferences folder and select "SlideShowSaver" in the list.

Bug :
The only bug we know of is a tiny memory leak :-(  However the memory is all released when the screen saver is deactivated.

Current version : 1.2.2 (this version is totally different of the 1.1)
Only the x86 version is available for BeOS R4.5.
