Hmm. Beats me. Never knew it was there (either in the menu file
description or in blackbox itself). I can't find any code for it
from 0.51.3 onwards, though.
I don't know that its a particularly useful feature these days --
most of the .blackboxrc options can be adjusted on-the-fly by the
config menu within blackbox -- so I'll probably just change the
text in data/menu.in to coincide with reality.
