I would use Darkside, a public domain screen saver written by dowdy@apple.com. It's pretty nifty. A version was posted to comp.sys.mac.binaries but a newer, better version which works well under system 7 exists, but dowdy has not had time to distribute it. I don't even have a copy but I am quite satisfied with the earlier version [under System 6.0.5] which I've never had conflicts with unlike Pyro and AfterDark. [whisper: maybe if enough people pester dowdy@apple.com, he'll get around to distributing it. :> ]. ---Jason jason@cs.utexas.edu ----- Jason Martin Levitt email: jason@cs.utexas.edu "Since there are virtually no rules, the catalog of information includes voluminous pornography, along with advice on recreational drugs, satanism, paganism, and sex slaves." --the Houston Chronicle describing the "internet" to its readers.
