it works exactly as the author says it does, but it would be nice to have it work instantly at users choice instead of the mandatory minimum wait of 30 seconds before working. keep in mind that the user has already waited 3+ minutes for their screensaver to activate, so give us a zero minimum wait time. thank you.
