Let me know if you change you mind or find some spare time. The scale of the
code is not high and it is very well laid (modularity) and well document in
my opinion (which is of course biased). I wouldn't mind if you changed the
name, bastardised the code and took it elsewhere. I would even encourage
that so possessiveness is not a peril.
Best wishes,
Roy
