Ok folks, here goes.
I'm a bit upset. It is not my usual policy to comment on
other peoples' hacks. It is the nature of hacks that they be
buggy and sometimes nonfunctional. I myself have made some
blunderous hacks. Anyway, my programming prowess aside, I
want to know what the deal is with the Reverse Screen INIT.
I may be a bit premature here because I have scads of INITs in
my system that may throw Reverse Screen off a bit. However, I this
INIT does what I want. Sort of. I want ot know if anyone else has
used this INIT and how they reacted. I was excited at the idea. I
like the white on black much better. The INIT however has some
serious flaws that I thinkcould be remedied with a little
effort. Maybe there is another INIT that does the reverse screen
a little more thoroughly.
I know that patching the Finder is not easy. I would like to have
the Finder window Black in the background. Icons on black sounds
nice to me. I would like the chooser to be readable when the color
is changed to black. The Reverse Screen doesn't handle text and
controls very well. It has some problems with its Update Event handler.
When in a text editor, the screen is not always updated to black
properly.Again it may be that my other INITs are causing problems.
Finally, if anyone knows of a better patch, or if the creator of
reverse screen would comment, I would appreciate the correspondence.
I think that the idea that Reverse Screen has presented is
excellent and I support hacks of this type very strongly.
It just needs a little refinement. If that's possible under
the current system/finder available.

Just Commenting

It is not the intention of this message to slander or give
anyone a hard time.
Keep Hacking.
