Does anyone know of a software screen dimmer for the ST? It seems that for someone who knows how to do a desk accessory and handle the screen and keyborad it should be easy. What I am looking for is something to darker the screen after the keyboard and mouse have been inactive. I read an add somewhere for such a device which was a part of some other product, any ideas? Thanx. /bill

Evergreen, Chandler, AZ 85224, make a set of products that includes a crt saver. After the keyboard has been inactive for about a minute, the crt goes black. This function can be disabled if you want. I recommend that you go for the whole set, which is called SolaPak. In addition to the crt saver, it includes an auto-booting ramdisk of adjustable size (by editing a text file) and a print spooler/formatter. --->Neil @ Atari ...lll-crg!vecpyr!atari!neil
