(Rage) Screen Saver

Another screen saver accessory. Originaly developped for fVDI on Falcon+Eclipse and ATI RageIIc, under MagiC environment. And now extended for FreeMiNT.

Mouse cursor moves are monitored. If inaction, then 2 actions:
1 – first is software (MagiC or MiNT required), launching an animation program such as one of my VDI Effects or one of your own.
and/or, but always next
2 – second is DPMS, with two methods:
2.1 – one software, by displaying a black image, in order to save pixels, and hopefully for the monitor to detect it and turn into sleep mode.
2.2 – one hardware, by setting off the display in the registers of the video card. Detection is automatic if PCI BIOS is available. If not, you can set it manually for your video card expansion. Read the ST-Guide documentation and the GFA sources.

mbedTLS.ldg

Brings SSL/TLS layer (recent TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3) to clients applications using MiNTnet and STinG/STiK TCP layers.
Built on mbedTLS 3.6.2 and LDG system.
Used by :
Troll, usenet and email client.
Meg, mailbox checker and spam eraser.
Litchi, ftp client.
Other programs can use it, please read the how-to and functions calls in the st-guide documentation.

Here are listed versions for 68K, 68020-060 and ColdFire V4e using cross-compilation and the mintlib. Safe LDG.PRG is provided to install TSR ldg functions and the ‘LDGM’ cookie needed for my applications.

NB: TLS 1.2 needs a very strong CPU (060, ColdFire, Aranym, V4SA). TLS 1.3 seems quicker but still may also good highclocked CPU.
