A new version of the Autoblack INIT was recently distributed which
claimed to work with the Mac SE. The original INIT would black the screen by
putting the mouse in the upper right-hand corner, but would not do so
automatically after five minutes.

The new INIT does, in fact, blank the screen after five minutes of inactivity.
However, when running on an SE with Finder 5.3/System 4.4, it sometimes leaves
an extra clock on the screen. A clock face appears, but one time it does not
disappear before a new one is put up. The result is two clocks on the screen:
one movinge and displaying the current time, and one stationary and "stuck."

Could someone who knows how to contact the author of Autoblack (it wasn't on
the latest distribution) let him or her know about this?
