installed NiteView at CAO

As Tony came in from the observatory and sat at the living room computer, he exclaimed, "Ah. My eyes!" He was, of course, getting blasted by the bright monitor and losing his dark adaptation. It reminded me that it is difficult to quickly and easily change the settings of the monitor itself, either via goofy digital buttons on the underside of the monitor, or by strange software. When I suddenly remember NiteView, the nifty little red-mode app! I immediately installed it to the machine and implemented it under the Limited User account. Put it in the Startup folder, so to automatically launch. Hopefully that will help members in the future...
