Hang in there, Dan! I did the first Python port to the KSR-1 on my own time
too, despite working for the visionless bastards at the time. The rest is
history: the glory, the fame, the riches, the groupies, the adulation of my
peers. We won't mention the financial scandal and subsequent bankruptcy
lest it discourage you for no good reason <wink>.
BTW, "do the simplest thing that can possibly work"! It's OK if it's a
little ugly. Better that than force hundreds of Python-builders to get
divorced from a decade-old directory naming scheme.
