+# Begin rant. FWIW, I'm not very impressed with bless:
+# - It has show-stopper bugs that were left in place when the maintainer
+#   abandoned it a few years ago (others have fixed the worst of them
+#   by now, patches included here).
+# - It starts up in Insert mode which definitely violates the principle
+#   of least surprise (in normal hex editors, overwrite is generally the
+#   default and often only mode). This is so annoying that I patched it.
+#   Even in overwrite mode, it'll let you append bytes to the end of
+#   the file, which a hex editor shouldn't do in its default mode.
+# - It ships with 3 .layout files that get installed in /usr/share, but
+#   the layout dialog is broken: you can't choose between the
+#   "system" layouts, though you can load them if you copy them to
+#   ~/.config/bless/layouts. (But, they don't appear to *do* anything...)
+# - Finally, and maybe this is just my own personal bias, I don't see an
+#   obvious way to change the white background to black (if the .layout
+#   files are capable of it, great, but I tried really hard to get them
+#   to work and they don't seem to behave the way the docs say they do).
+#   This means I won't be using this application very much, as it hurts
+#   my eyes to look at it for more than a few minutes.
+# If it's so awful, why am I writing a SlackBuild for it? Because it's
+# a GUI hex editor that (a) uses GTK, and (b) doesn't require KDE and
+# its horde of daemons. Someone is going to be glad it's here. People
+# who grew up using GUIs are going to prefer this to a textmode app.
+# Here endeth the rant.
