  I'd say it's still in the planing stages, but I've got some pretty firm
ideas (as my posting indicated).  I'm right in the middle of trying to
get the second release of 2.10BSD out the door, but we're cutting the
tape this Monday (yet another production deadline to miss), so I'll be
able to start work on this then.  It shouldn't take very long to put
together because I can steal all the necessary code from xinit and xtools.

  I'll make a preliminary version available for testing probably within a
week.
