Does anyone have a net address for the guy who wrote Darkness?  I
couldn't find one in the documentation.

Basically, Darkness is a fine idea, but I don't use it for the
following reasons:

    *	I agree that INITs and CDEVs are to be avoided, but so are
	magic key combinations like the ones Darkness uses.  I HATE
	things like that.

    *	Since it's "background only", you can't have MultiFinder start
	it up using the "Opened Applications and DAs" option.  I
	refuse to warp my application locations just so I can use the
	"Selected Items" option.

    *	The "sleep now" and "SetDarkness" options don't work on a
	IIci, Apple 2-page display with 8*24 card, running 6.0.5 under
	MultiFinder (only foreign INITs are Suitcase II 1.2.6 and ATM
	1.2).  It does kick in by timing.

Why not just make Darkness a regular application?  This would solve
the first two problems easily.

My shareware fee is in escrow until Darkness becomes usable for me :-).
