After you add the fade (trivial to do, btw) if you've got background
functions running (like, oh, a Kermit server), and you have a program
in the foreground that opens a 640x400x4 or 320x200x5 screen
do the background program(s) a favor and open a single bit plane
black screen in front.  Then they will get more time, as the
custom chips can sit back and coast.
