Came across this little bug just this evening. Don't know whether it's SuperClock's fault or Fade To Black's, but here it is: After two minutes, Fade To Black clicks on. After it is turned off with some event, SuperClock no longer updates the clock in the menubar until the menubar is altered in some way: open a DA, launch a document, quit, etc. SuperClock then redraws and everything returns to normal until Fade To Black is executed again. My configuration: Mac Plus, System 6.0.2, Finder. Only INITs/cdevs active: SuperClock 3.0 and Fade To Black installed in the system. I believe the author of Super Clock is on the net, I don't know about Fade To Black's author...

I'd like to add that Fade to Black also disables TOPS, i.e., it
makes it appear as though a server is turned off. Moire Idle does
not but unfortunately it doesn't go on automatically.
