While we're on the topic of annoyances needing to be fixed, I'd like to
see a utility that automatically dismisses or closes windows and dialog
boxes after a given amount of time. For example, everytime NPDS restarts
my Newton, there are two card info windows, a BugTrap information window,
and who know what else waiting for me on the screen. If after 30 seconds
or so, something could virtually tap the close boxes on those windows...

Similar functionality is found in one of my favorite classic Mac apps
called Okey Dokey Pro by Dan Walkowski:
