Yes. But that's not what we're talking about. We're talking about
debugging things like Interpreter and XBF seperately, before we have
the ability to debug them as part of FreeCard.

I think dumping random data to random blocks and reading it out would
give it a better testing. Basicly, perform random actions to the file.
Include some erroneous ones (tryign to read non-existant blocks, for
example).
Either that, or run a news server using XBF as a file system <g>.
