One thing that continues to plague me (although obviously
not yet to death :-) is the glacial rate at which the text
more cursor blinks. I'd like it to be at least twice as
fast, if that's possible. After shopping around on various
preferences, I still haven't found it, if it's there. The word
blink doesn't seem to exist in the online docs, but it seemed
rather a strain to track down the many instances of cursor.
Is there a remedy?

Hey, it beats the heck outta X.
