Does anyone know of a screenblanker program that will disable 300 screen not under X windows. (Something that will work when someone is logged out.) Could you post where to get it.

A quick and simple solution, but not completely what you want, is to put the command, clear(1), in the .logout file. It moves the cursor to the top of screen memory, then clears the memory. All you would have left on the screen is the login prompt. Gary Stringham

We have an HP 2397A running in 2627A emulation on an HP 9825. Clear will clear the current page of memory, but the "page back" key will sent you back through all pages to the top of memory. It is fairly simple to send the escape sequences to put the cursor at the top of memory and then do a clear, which will insure that you have cleared all memory. -- Mathieu Federspiel mcf%statware.uucp@cs.orst.edu Statware {hp-pcd,tektronix}!orstcs!statware!mcf 260 SW Madison Avenue, Suite 109 503-753-5382 Corvallis OR 97333 USA

And for an even cleaner way to do this alter the terminfo entry. (I like to be able to view my .logout on my terminal!).
