Forgive me for posting four months after the fact (my apologies if this is frowned upon).
Well, we do expect detailed replies within 48 hours, but for software authors, we make an exception! ;)

Seriously though, we welcome your posts here!

Now you mention the the screen is inverted every 6 hours. I think you are doing this based on the position of the sun (light versus dark) rather than a step toward preventing screen burn in. And while a change every 12 hours is certainly better than nothing at all, screen burn in will be noticeable after about a year of leaving the Mac switching on 24/7 this way. But for some people, CRT burn in may not matter, especially because many old Pluses already have a fair amount of burn in. But if there could be a feature added to allow more rapid screen inversion, then it would be a step toward protecting the CRT a bit better. Even so, thank you for the work on this great classic Mac app!
