[comp.sys.amiga] Mouse Blanking and JR-Comm

Is there any 'mouse blanking' type programs that don't blank
the JRComm sprite cursor as well?

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!

QMouse 1.6 does the trick for me...
