                                    only has to enter six parameters into the
                                    program for it to draw and display the scale
                                    on screen. The scale can be saved as a bitmap
                                    and edited using any paint program. FREEWARE

                                    1.1 works with more gauges, including the
                                    large CFS "clustered" GAU files. A new option
                                    adds FS98-style night lighting to unlit gauges.
                                    An added utility changes the FS2000 GPS gauge

                                    Here are 160 panel bitmaps I have created
                                    between 1999 and 2005, please use them any
                                    way you like - but please don't try to sell
                                    them! The high quality panel bmp's range from
                                    WW1 to the present era and cover USA/Britain/
                                    Luftwaffe/Soviet/Japanese air forces and others.
                                    They do not include any gauges or panel.cfg's.

                                    BlackBox XML Gauge Debugging Utility. BlackBox
                                    constructs an xml diagnostic gauge that can
                                    be used to display in readout form the numerical
                                    or string values of all or selected A:, E:,
                                    P:, L:, C:, G:*, and @c and @g macro (related
                                    to the FS9 or FSX gps module) variables of
                                    the gauge you are editing/building. It can
                                    display important parameters such as boolean,
                                    L: and A: variables that are not often displayed
                                    directly by the gauge you are building. As
                                    such, it is very useful for debugging xml
                                    gauge logic; you can see what the variables
                                    are actually doing as MS Flight Simulator
