If the <B>:displayof</B> option is omitted, the display of the application's main window is used by default. The procedure uses the current bell-related settings for the display, which may be modified with programs such as <B>xset</B>. <P> This procedure also resets the screen saver for the screen. Some screen savers will ignore this, but others will reset so that the screen becomes visible again. <P><IMG ALIGN=TOP SRC="./Img/line-red.gif"><P> <A HREF=./STk-hlp.html><IMG ALIGN=BOTTOM SRC="./Img/RefBookBlue.gif"> Back to the <B>STk</B> main page</A> </BODY></HTML>
