I'm trying to figure out how to dim my color screen from software,
like screen savers like "Dimmer" or the "FadeAway" module from 
After Dark do. Doesn't seem like it should be that hard, if they 
are able to change the screen brightness on the Classic with a
dinky little cdev, do they just change a memory location or what? Is
something this easy being done with Dimmer or FadeAway? How can
I do this? Any clues/code/page numbers in Inside Mac would be
much appreciated!
