[MR] A (Probably Ridiculous) Heraldic Suggestion

And then, confusion set in...

"Blazons" and "Blazons 95" are not to be confused with "Blazons!" or
"Blazons! 2000", a distinctly different software package. Unfortunately,
they were developed at about the some time and the developers didn't know
about each other, hence the way-too-similar names. :)

I've used both. The "Blazons! 2000" package has more charges than "Blazons".
It can parse text blazoning (mostly accurate), as well as allow for graphic
device design. My only beef with it is that it dosen't have "potent" as one
of the available furs, so I have to do stuff in ordrr to generate my own
device. :(

However, "Blazons! (& 2000)" seems to have dropped off the net, and
www.blazons.com dosen't answer any more. :(  If anyone knows it's current
whereabouts, please chime in! I think I have an archived download on my home
machine, but alas, I'm still in Trimaris.
