This is Kevin O'Kane's project. I think it is very interesting but it is 
non-standard and
in particular does not implement standard MUMPS collation order on globals. Not 
sorting
numeric subscripts in numeric order is one of the biggest remaining impediments 
to
compatibility with existing applications like Fileman. I recall from looking at 
its
development over the years that compatibility with standard functions and 
operators has
improved quite a bit, but non-standard collation order still remained as of the 
last time
I looked at it.
