DMouse V1.24 doesn't blank the JRComm sprite cursor, and it seems quite stable.
The only beef I have with it is that it doesn't recognise joystick movements,
but I'm not aware of any screen blanker that does.

While this is the subject, is there a good reason why this is so?  Playing
a joystick game and suddenly having the screen go blank can be very annoying!
