Re: [9fans] Galaxy screensaver updated

[andrey mirtchovski <andrey@lanl.gov>]

i have translated five or six more xscreensaver hacks (long delay
between flights :). i'm not able to send them to the list now,
but will do so as soon as possible..

some of the (tom duff's spheres for example) now have colors :)

one thought -- could it be possible that the program crashes because
there is some sort of a race condition with eresized()?

does it get called the same way notes handlers are? i don't know,
just speculating -- i had only one crash during a resize for the last
few days and the rarity of it is puzzling me...

anyway, i'm planning a web page for ports and fixes to the
xscreensaver hacks -- i'll put your new galaxy code in...
