unicode-screensaver is a simple screensaver application that repeatedly
randomly picks an unicode character and displays it in a very large font
size together with its unicode code point and the character name.

Installation
============

The unicode screensaver depends on these libraries:
 * libx11
 * libxmu
 * libxt
 * libxft
 * libfontconfig

You need to have the respective developer packages installed to compile
unicode-screensaver. On Debian and derived distributions, these packages
are required:
 libx11-dev libxmu-dev libxt-dev libxft-dev libfontconfig1-dev

You can compile and install the screensaver as usual by running
 ./configure && make && make install
See ./configure --help for options regarding the installation directories of
the screensaver itself, xscreensaver config files, the .desktop files etc.

To make sure that xscreensaver knows about your screen hack, please read
the man pages for xscreensaver and xscreensaver-demo.
