With all the brouhaha about the date and menu blink controls being removed from the new control panel, the following comments may help: 1) The PRAM demo application, posted to net.sources.mac many moons ago, does all the missing functions for you. It is shareware, if enough desire is expressed I would be willing to post it there again in PackIt II. 2) Since the menu blink parameter is in battery backed-up RAM, and since the clock is also battery backed-up, once you set these you won't need to set them again until something happens to the battery (or the clock drifts). -Brian Diehm Tektronix, Inc.
