Thank you for your feedback.

Thank you for pointing that out. I'll fix it momentarilly. Even though I
used the Haiku coding guidelines page, I forgot to run the checkstyle
script. I'll use that, too.

The number of tabs is correct. As for using a resource file, I'm afraid
it won't work with a screensaver. See:

Oh, yes, I studied the source code for all of the Haiku screensavers a
lot. I've thought about adding controls to change settings. I think
it'll be a fun little project. I think "Speed" and "Number of leaves"
and "Background color" would be pretty easy for me to add. I really
wanted to make the leaves rotate, but I haven't figured out how to
rotate a bitmap in Haiku yet. :( Anyway, I'll start working on it.

I had a silly experience. I was going crazy trying to figure out why my
code suddenly STOPPED WORKING. Finally, I realized I used the "setgcc
gcc4" command when I was working on another project, but I forgot to
change it back. @_@
Thank you,
Dave
