I can pop my own image successfully into the screensaver folder and it works fine. However, I want it to display the cover of the last book opened, and all the readme says is "drop a blank file called cover in the folder". Here's my n00b question: how do I create a blank cover file???

On UNIX it would be simply "touch cover". But even on Windows you should be able to open a text editor and save an empty file named "cover". Or you could duplicate the file auto-reboot and rename it to cover.
It really isn't a cover, just a file named "cover", which existence tells the hack in what mode to run. I guess checking a file's existence is easier - in terms of computing power - than to open and read a file and parse a configuration.
Oh, and it need to be in the linkss/ directory, where the cover-cache/ directory and all the other stuff is.
