What? ANOTHER screen blanker? Wait! What do you expect today from a
screen blanker?

- stable
- fast
- low cpu-time usage by the blanker-task
- modular
- comfortable
- highly configurable
- many interesting, fancy, nice modules
- compatible with most gfx-cards
- many features

- nice GUI
- ARexx interface
- joyport-monitoring
- AmigaGuide docs with context-sensitive help
- Installer-script for easy and automatic installing
- flexible random option
- no burn-in if the blanker halts (because another task needs the CPU)
- no crash or hang, if a nasty program opens its window on the blankerscreen
- reblanking
- adjustable mouse sensitivity
