Announcing the availability of DarkSide of the Mac 3.2:

You can get the latest version of DarkSide from ftp.apple.com,
found in the /hacks directory.  Feel free to post on other
FTP sites as well.  I will not be posting DarkSide to c.b.m., but
someone else can do so if they wish.

For those of you not aware, DarkSide is a freeware extendable
screen saver with 40 different faders.  It runs as an
application and does not patch any traps.  It works under System 7 - 
and is 32 bit clean.   You'll find that DarkSide has almost all of
the features of commerical INIT-based screen savers...

It is important to note that DarkSide 3.2 requires System 7 to run!
You can obtain DarkSide 2.5 from sumex-aim for an unsupported
system 6 version of DarkSide with considerably less features.

The new features that were added to 3.2 were done at the request of 
registered users of DarkSide.  If you would like to become a registered
user of DarkSide, and receive an offical release disk and printed
documentation, you can find details on how to do so in the documentation.
The documentation also contains details on how to obtain the source
code to DarkSide.

New features for 3.2:
- two new faders: Typewriter, and Particles
- notification scrolling now features application or DA name 
(for those that it can)
- fixed a few minor bugs (with notification)
- a new option to "auto-install" the DarkSide alias into your startup items
folder.

DarkSide 4.0 is currently in the works, and will include a reworking of
windows
and dialogs to be completely modeless, a custom segment loader (shooting
for a memory size of around 48K), some more faders (of course) - including
a special Portable fader, and one other major feature (that I'm not
mentioning).
DarkSide 4.0 will continue to be freeware, and continue to require system
7.
