Note that  Pyro, as wonderful as it is, does *NOT* work correctly
under Multifinder, although it may appear to do so at first.

It works correctly (blanking the screen after the defined period)
when  any application OTHER  than  the  Finder  is  the  foremost
application, but never blanks by itself when Finder is foremost.

I spoke to the author  a  while  ago and he indicated that he was
aware of the problem and knew  why  it  was happening, and that a
new version would probably be available in  a few months.  He did
not advise of any upgrade policy.
