I noticed one incompatibility problem between above
mentioned programs. First, I should state that I do
like a lot of this BlackBox INIT.

However when I installed BlackBox in my MacII the
screen saver didn't work. I threw all my INITs and
cdevs out of the system folder and traced down the
incompability to the file called QuickInit of QuickMail.
But I also managed to go over this. I changed the name
of that file so that I put a space in front of it. So
it is loaded now before BlackBox. Now the screen saver
works and QuickMail too.

I noticed another "bug" too. When using smart quotes it
seems that it doesn't work with international (or should
I say national (I mean other than US)) keyboards. Single
quote doesn't work. It produces 'T' or 'U' but not that
single quote.

I hope Andrew Welch takes a look at these problems and 
hopefully these notes help him to keep improving this 
great program.
