And SuperClock 3.9 gives a bomb box if it's in your system folder when
you log in to a 24- or 32-bit Mac environment with A/UX 2.0.  This is
rather special: nothing else I have fails as spectacularly.  SuperClock
3.1, which works otherwise, jams the Finder if you attempt to use its
control panel interface from a 32-bit environment.

As to other CDEVs and INITs, I've tried a few freely-available ones, and
junked them if they fail.  I have not kept a tally.  Currently working
are Serial Mapper 2.3 (only relevant if you have a Taniwha CommCard);
DepthGauge 2.0.18; ShortCut 1.0.1 (commercial from Aladdin; good stuff);
and OnCue 1.3 (also commercial).

As a matter of interest, can anybody point to a problem-free menu-bar
clock?
