I've seen this as well. It appears that killing postscript/windowserver
with some sort of nasty postscript can cause this.

Killing all your processes and restarting the window server makes sense,
without a working postscript you aren't going to see very much.

Of course, if postscript didn't die in the first place...

Note, I've had some weirdness out of these restarts. The mail program lock's
the mail file. And when it gets killed it doesn't always seem to unlock the
file before dying. Which brings up an alert panel after you log back in and
run it again.
