I'm not trying to run you down but why is this necessary? I thought that
the difference between a .PRG and a .ACC was that the .ACC should not
exit. Besides, this is wonderful, if you happen to have AESQ and VDIQ.
This is the first that I have heard of either of them and I would like to
know more.

Are they readily available and if so, where do I find them?

Do they come with source?

Do they implement all of the VDI and AES functions or only some arbitrary
subset like the gem.c that went out with MJC?

What is this function for? Who or what needs it?
