I use Boinc for shared computing of Seti@Home. I would like to set the Boinc screensaver on my Ubuntu 14.04. For that I installed xscreensaver and I got the advice to

add the following to the 'programs' preference in your .xscreensaver file:

GL: boincscr -root \n\

Typing which xscreensaver gave me /usr/bin/xscreensaver. But I cannot find the .xscreensaver file /bin directory.

I typed in terminal emacs xscreensaver and a blank file opened. Could it be that I have to create it? Since I don't know how to do it, can I instead access another file and do the change there?
