""I haven't been able to replicate the other reported bugs (flashing
colours, or losing information between ED00h and F700h).""
If by "flashing colours" you mean like the malfunctioning guardians
which appear in several rooms in Soul Miner (notably Electrical Storm
with its angels), I wouldn't worry about that. That particular bug
happened because JSWED crashed on me, and I immediately fired it up
again and started editing, despite the fact that JSWED wasn't
displaying the movements of guardians at all. Basically, I think I
caught the program whilst it was suffering a temporary glitch, and
saved it into Soul Miner by accident. I don't know how the similar
guardians I see in Dan's 'The Journey Home' and Adban's "Carnival
Macabre" got in there though, but I assume it was a similar situation
Speaking of flashing colours, this raises something else I was going
to ask about. In future editions of JSWED, would it be possible to
add an option to change the flash-pattern? After all, JSW, JSW2 and
Geoff Mode all have different colour patterns
