Okay, I see what you're saying. Makes sense.

I wasn't saying it would be terribly difficult, just a use of time
that could be more profitably spent elsewhere.
At any rate, I finished decaf's monitors this morning, so things
are proceeding apace. Next thing on my list is rewriting the current
keyboard driver not to use the AWT, which causes problems calling native
functions.
Anyway, good luck!
