- I found the problem. If you'll recall, I was asking that a button
- respond with a certain effect on unlock screen. Well, it turns out that
- on my machine (LC 10/80, 12" color monitor set to thousands of colors)
- when the monitor is set to thousands of colors, HC does not execute some
- screen commands: unlock screen with (whatever) is overridden and
- scrolling in fields set to scroll is very slow.
-
- Whereas when the monitor is set to 256 colors or B & W, no problem, all
- works as it should. After further testing, it seems that the only time
- it has problems is when in the thousands of colors mode, color or greys.

- P.S. Unlock screen still works but the visual effect part is what's
- overridden.
