I would dearly love this as well, specifically for use with NPDS. Between
the slips for the ethernet card, the memory card, the Apple debug tools,
and a reminder that my Newton was just restarted (Why, thank you very
much, I didn't know...), there's like at least four taps to get a clear
screen again.
Something along the lines of Okey Dokey Pro for Mac would be great. It
automatically dismisses dialog boxes after a user-definable time period.

Any thoughts?
