that's what i've been doing... converting some of my fancy tricks back to
pascal which i likely borrowed them from to start with... but as i work
through everything, i find that many of them have already been made and
exist in the libraries... even some of my nastiest clock/time/date code is
already available from the libraries and i don't even need to use my wheel
any more... that also save me from having to maintain it and try to figure
out my own bugs... other's have already done that...
