Thanks, Ben. That'll work for this application!

However, I've been using OS3.3, and therefore the beta 3.5 support files,
which contain (now in CoreTraps.h):

  sysTrapHwrBacklightV33,  // This trap obsoleted for OS 3.5 and later

Can anyone at Palm point us to an officially blessed alternative? Grepping
on "backlight" doesn't turn up anything in the 3.5 support files...
