I think these really need to be rewritten from scratch. They look

You might remember that we had this discussion before. The script was written
in awk and then translated to perl by a2p. We knew that this code was less than
optimal, but at least it works.
Oh, I'm sorry, I'd totally forgotten that. At least it explains why it
looks like it's from a time warp. I bet the perl guys haven't touched
a2p for many many years.
cheers
