Two minutes ago I finished applying some, what seems to be working,
changes to the Blackbox source to make windows not mazimize over the
slit. I haven't tried it out a lot, but it seems to work for me. There's
the, more or less, obvious side effect of that you can never maximize a
window to cover the slit now, but I can fix that later on. The only
reason why I'm not posting the patch right away (aside that I should be
sleeping) is because I've never made a patch before and isn't very
familiar with the diff tool. If someone could help me out with some
directions on how to use diff I'd be glad to post a patch as soon as
possible.
