Hi Commodore,
I'm sitting in front of a DIGITAL Workstation (for work, not fun!) and I see
that the screen blanks after some inactivity. And the mouse behaves the same
way as with the Amiga+DMOUSE with a suitable acceleration.
These features are provided by the operating system, as far as I know.
Why don't put them in 1.4?
I think that at least these functions should be taken away from POPCLI and
(D|Q)MOUSE - like programs in order to instill them
in the kernel, because they are so generally useful. Maybe some
parameters can be adjusted to personal taste inside Preferences.
A last thing which I really like is the ability of clip/paste between text
windows: I understand that it must not be that simple, but if you succeed in
adding this to the system we'll have a significant step toward a professional
system. Best regards
				Alberto Lusiani
