Bruce, and others. Schizo saves the time/date information in the
file attribute of the Schizo.acc file. If you look at the file using
the TEXT option of the VIEW menu you will see the time/date stamp
for the file. My guess is that somehow the stamp was changed for
your file and Schizo is reading something strange from it. You might
try to update the file's stamp and then hard-cold boot (turn your
machine off) and let it run again. If this does not fix it, let me
know. If there is a bug I want to fix it in the next release.
Anybody else have problems like this? (I haven't but I have a clock
chip so I never use that function of Schizo).
  Also, for the next release, are people happy with the screen
color combinations? Currently they are:

	Text	Back	Fore
	----	----	----
	Black	White	Blue
	White	Black	Green
	Amber	Black	Red

This can be changed if people want others. I figured that the first
is a kind of standard, and the others save the screen. The mono
capability in the new version *should* work, but I don't have a mono
monitor, so I can't test it.
  The new version will be posted here some time this weekend (I
hope). After that I will be in the midst of finals, and after that I
will lose my account. So, I hope I will get an account in Minnesota
(where I will be next year). Any new updates to the net will be
dependant on that. In any case I will be gone from the net from June
14 till early October at least (unless somebody in San Diego wants
to let me use an account over the summer :-)). If you have questions
or problems, look for me on GEnie or write me before June 14.
  Happy hacking!
