[plus some other stuff]

1. I can confirm that nite *does* work on a 520ST with a monochrome monitor.
   There is no system lock-up, the screen bounces back to life quite nicely
   when I press any key or move the mouse.  I have not had a chance to test
   out the killer half of nite yet, as I am trying to split my time between
   distributing 7 some odd Meg of software from the net and skiing.
   
2. I have also had the same problems with dash and disasmbl.  Of the three
   different versions of uudecode that I use, none would give me a working
   or un-arcable version.  It could be that very little of the net got these
   files in working order (since it would appear that very little of our
   respective net paths coincide).
