I did have some exposure with cmd-line unix Sys3, but only after
Domain/OS I understood what power was there.

Usually when VariantLinks come up, I try to light the fire....
First time was round 2.x, and a few more times in between.

And as most say: Show us the code.
But Jordan found evidence that is was almost already there.
And even then it did not get through.

So I'm more than reluctant to burn the few spare hours I have, if it is
rejected upon forehand.
