I wrote a screen blanker in the style of "Stars" for the Mac, as one of the
other columnists for ST World requested it. I've never seen "Stars", so I
had to guess at the SFX, but Steve Cassidy (who did the requesting) says he gets
giddy if he watches it for too long!

I only know of one incompatibilty (with the clock display of Tempus 2), and it
should work on the STE and TT (Quite a bit of work went into this, but I've
not had chance to test it yet).

It's an accessory written in assembler, but I could attempt to post a uuencoded
version of the ARChive, if anybody is interested. (I can't access the .binaries
group...)
