Ignore X screensaver

[Former user]

Is it possible to ignore the X screensaver? I tried xset s 0 0, but when the screen blanks due to DPMS settings, the screensaver event is still activated.

If not, please add a switch similar to --ignore-sleep to ignore the X screensaver completely.

You can do this yourself by commenting out a couple lines of code. I pushed a fork that does this that you can see as an example. Here is a link to the commit that does it...
