Add an escape sequence to specify the current console's cursor blink interval. The interval is specified as a number of milliseconds until the next cursor display state toggle, from 50 to 65535. /proc/loadavg did not show a difference with a one msec interval, but the lower bound is set to 50 msecs since slower hardware wasn't tested.if they want to be crazy, why not let them ? it's not like we generally prevent the user from destroying their machine. i.e. just require the value to be > 0 (unless you want to let 0 disable things).
Because anyone with access to console can do this, and we only allow root users to destroy the machine. Pavel -- (english) http://www.livejournal.com/~pavelmachek (cesky, pictures) http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~pavel/picture/horses/blog.html
