Dimmer certainly is wonderful, just like you say. I understood
that a commercial copy was going to be available Real Soon
Now.  Has anyone ever seen it?  Also, my copy of Dimmer
crashes the latest System (version 6.0) just now being
distributed by Apple.  If using Dimmer, pulling down a menu
causes the machine to freeze up.
