[ale] screen blanking

[bkruger at mindspring.com (Bob Kruger)]

I noticed that with my system running RedHat, when logging off the screen
blanks.  On the other hand, my Slackware systems do not.

Is there a way to have the screen blank after logging off so that the login
screen has only the contents of the issue file followed by the login prompt?

Thanks in advance of any help
