Very good.
For a quick-and-dirty suspend, it's no big deal to leave an Xterm up,
with 'echo > /proc/sys/pm/suspend' in it's command buffer.
Then anytime I wish to suspend: (1) click the Xterm, (2) push cursor-up
button, (3) push return button.
To wake it up: (1) push the on/off button.
Maybe someday I'll make it a single-click button within Squeak, but this
1-click/2-buttons suspend will work for now.
