Possibly the reason that no one sells this is that it's not that tough
of a programming job.  (The documentation would take longer than the
programming :-)  I wrote a very simple version in vanilia C that
compiled on everything I've tried so far (Vax/PC/HP...)  Send
me mail for a copy, or perhapse I'll post the program (about a page.)
