If I'm not mistaken, Maccel2 will blank a color monitor, and periodically
reverse a monochrome monitor.  I have been told that the reason for this
is that the monochrome monitor design will fry itself if it goes for long
periods without a sync signal.

I installed the recently posted "pyro" program on top of Maccel2 -
It goes to an almost blank screen after a blanking delay, and produces
a random display of single-pixel "fireworks".  It's cute, but you almost
have to turn the room lights off to see the fireworks.  Anyway, since it
is being sent a signal, it maintains sync to the monitor, but the screen
is essentially black.
