     SYNTAX
     
     blank
     
     USAGE
     
     BLANK can  be used  to blank to screen. With servers this
     saves the  screen phosphor  from overburning.  There is a
     similar program  BLANKER, which  runs as  a  monitor  and
     automatically blanks  the screen,  when no  activity from
     the keyboard  has  been  detected  for  a  given  period.
     However BLANK  must be  run manually to blank the screen.
     It is  meant to  be used in machines with no extra memory
     or processing capasity to spare (BALNKER uses quite a few
     threads).
     
     Set BLANK as a program item to some of your groups. Every
     time you  leave the  machine you  must remember to double
     click on  that icon.  Only then it will save your display
     from overburn.
     
     Press any key to restore display.
