I use untamo, which I got long long ago. I'm not sure where
I got the one I run now, but it is not the same that appeared
in comp.source.(misc? unix?). It is available from mthvax.cs.miami.edu
via ftp as ~ftp/pub/untamo.shar.Z or by the netlib server
netlib@mthvax.cs.miami.edu by sending it the request:

send untamo.shar from sources
