Yeah...  Many years ago Keith gave it a try, and then he had to go do
something else.  And then few years later, I gave it another go.
I got to somewhere quite close to useful, but never managed to get back
to finishing it.  The branch doesn't look like is on my github, I'd
have to dig it out.  This was pre-C++...  Maybe starting to scratch
is better...
