- I use XSB. However, it's in dire need of an update, due to some buggy
- coding practices in XSBCX itself. Attempts to contact the author have
- failed, but it seems he's freeing his gadgets before he closes the
- window he uses... which is bad programming. Causes big problems
- under MungWall, a standard developing tool...
-
- Also, using the random blank function doesn't work...
-
- There is another, if I remember correctly: ShadowMaster was a very
- good blanker system.
