This is a problem with After Dark 1.0 when one if the following is used under
MultiFinder: QuicKeys, DiskTop, Tempo II.  Renaming After Dark so it loads
after one of these programs (e.g. "zAfter Dark") will fix the problem.

After Dark 1.1 is also available which fixes the problem.  It is now available
as an updater program by anonymous ftp from rascal.ics.utesas.edu.  It is in the
directory "mac/NEW-in-9002" and the file is called "After_Dark_1.1_SIT_bin".
