Has anyone had any problems with Twilight? I know that from time to time, it will crash after it blinks into the screen blank mode more than once... Also, has anyone had any experiences of a "Twilight Module" (i.e. Universe) not allowing you back (reacting to mouse movements etc) and just locking into "Twilight" mode? - Jay (ghost@bucsf.bu.edu) -- """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" [ Jay Adelson ] [ T.G.C. ] [ ghost@bucsf.bu.edu ] [ 1039 Commonwealth Ave. #18 ] [ J.ADELSON1 (GEnie) ] [ Boston, MA. 02215-1008 ]

A trip to the CDA menu fixes that. ------- Mike Aos East Grand Forks, MN (yeah, it's COLD up here) UD182050@NDSUVM1 (.Bitnet?)

I have not had the problems with Twilight that you mention. In fact, it didn't blank the screen for me after I first got it. What I did was to remove or deactivate all of my other DA's and then reboot. It started working after that. You might want to try that, especially if like me you leave your machine on for great lengths of time. -----------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Vernon Lamont Williams | "All dogcows go to heaven" Library of Business and Economics +------------------------------------------- Room 130 Uris Hall | Internet: vw3@cunixf.cc.columbia.edu

I could get info, sort, delete, etc. the files in the archive, but would give me an error when extracting the files, i.e. there were no file names to match the archived files...

In-Reply-To: message from ghost@bucsf.bu.edu I've never had any of the problems you mention regarding Twilight, particulary Universe...which is the one I use all the time. If there is a problem with Twilight that you can repeated reproduce, write to Jonah Stich (the author) here on the net. His Internet address is: jonah@amos.ucsd.edu He is a really great guy (given me tips on programming).
