Kaleidoscope software support

Submitted by ascii on Wed, 2011-01-26 22:29.

I think the reason that no software supported the Kaleidoscope was mainly that it didn’t do very much! All it can do is tint the screen by dimming it slightly; if you wanted different colours on different parts of the screen you had to spend all the cpu time constantly communicating with the Kaleidoscope to change its setting.
