  32. Description:
  33.  
  34. FlashCar is a small application that generates a regular flashing cursor. 
  35. There are several programs that perform this function, but FlashCar has 
  36. the advantage of being small (unless, perhaps, you run it on a 4Mb A410 
  37. where the minimum WimpSlot is 32k) and fast (the program that performs a 
  38. similar function, and others, that comes with the RiscPC is written in 
  39. BASIC). The period of the flashing is configurable.
