KCAD (Kontrol-Alt-Delete) is a somewhat sarcastic screensaver for KDE. It is intended for those of you who are stuck with BOFH-type bosses who insist on running Windows NT.

This screensaver should assist you in appeasing their Microsoft-enhanced sensibilities. By default, KCAD looks just very KDE-ish, but with a little bit of configuration-editing, it will fool 99% of the Bosses out there.

Installation

tar xzfv kcad-1.00.tgz
cd kcad-1.00
./configure (on FreeBSD: --prefix=/usr/local --with-qt-includes=/usr/X11R6/include/qt2)
make (on FreeBSD: gmake)
(become root)
[g]make install

Using

In order to make KCAD look like it does in the second screenshot above, you must create a configuration file for KCAD. Put the following text in the file $HOME/.kde/share/config/kcad.kss:

[Settings]
NtLike=1

Voila! That's all there is to it! Consider your boss fooled!
