+xssxss
+======
+
+Normally, [Chrome](https://www.google.com/chrome/) pauses your screensaver while
+you’re watching video. If you use [xmonad](https://xmonad.org/) and
+[XScreenSaver](https://www.jwz.org/xscreensaver/) together, though, it won’t.
+xssxss fixes this behavior; simply run
+
+ make
+ LD_PRELOAD=$PWD/libxssxss.so google-chrome
+
+and ta-da, Chrome will disable your screensaver like it’s supposed to.
+
+Motivation
+----------
+
+Chromium disables the screensaver through D-Bus. Neither XScreenSaver nor xmonad
+implements a D-Bus interface, so [Chromium falls back][XSSSuspendSet] to calling
+[`XScreenSaverSuspend`][Xss(3)]. Despite its name, this is an X library function
+and [completely unrelated to XScreenSaver][Ubuntu 718176 comment 3], so
+XScreenSaver never picks up on it and remains active.
+
+xssxss (“`XScreenSaver`/XScreenSaver”) translates between X’s `XScreenSaver`
+functions and XScreenSaver’s interface by executing `xdg-screensaver reset` when
+Chrome calls `XScreenSaverSuspend`.
+
+[Ubuntu 718176 comment 3]: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xscreensaver/+bug/718176/comments/3
+[XSSSuspendSet]: https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/services/device/wake_lock/power_save_blocker/power_save_blocker_x11.cc?l=225&rcl=2edab67ba89b69c8b6117440faf1b8397a62ace6
+[Xss(3)]: https://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.7/doc/man/man3/Xss.3.xhtml
+
+Future work
+-----------
+
+Ideally, users would be able to control XScreenSaver using D-Bus. However, I
+think adding a D-Bus dependency to XScreenSaver is not the best approach;
+instead, someone should write an adapter daemon that implements [a reasonable
+D-Bus interface][idle-inhibition-spec] and executes `xscreensaver-command` to
+control XScreenSaver.
+
+Once that daemon’s written, Chromium will need to use it. There are multiple
+D-Bus interfaces for disabling various screensavers, and Chromium [currently
+picks based on the running desktop environment][SelectAPI]. Chromium will need
+modification to probe the available interfaces on the bus and select an
+appropriate one. There’s a [`TODO` to this effect][SelectAPI TODO], which
+suggests the project would be receptive to a patch.
