I thought that C WAS a pseudo code...after all, it's nearly impossible
to read (at least by the uninitiated! :-)

The only problem is that it won't run everywhere...I have troubles making
stuff that's supposedly Unix C source run on my System V, if it was
originally written for Version 7, 4.x BSD,...maybe a meta-C?
