This is all new to me, but I'm a Word/After Dark user.

Word has always seemed a bit of a CPU hog--whenever After Dark comes on, it's
slowed to a crawl on my SE.

Now I'm running into a much more serious problem. When I'm printing to my new
StyleWriter, if After Dark kicks in, I get a "This application has unexpectedly
quit" message.

Admittedly, I haven't been doing extensive testing (ie, removing all inits,
checking finder vs. multifinder) but it IS only happening in that situation.

I plan to poke around a bit more, if I turn up anything else I'll let y'all
know.
