API Notes: ScreenSaver framework

The full API is described in Apple’s documentation, both the C and Objective-C APIs are available (but see the API Notes below).

These bindings are accessed through the ScreenSaver package (that is, import ScreenSaver).

API Notes

Screen savers are plugins for the screen saver engine, this means that a screen saver must contain compiled C code for the correct architectures. Using py2app’s bundle mode can be used to bundle a screensaver bundle, but do take care to use the same version of Python for all such bundles.
