Initially, I've ported TW2002v2b5.5 (Between beta 5 and beta6)

I'm now working on rewriting the whole thing from scratch in C... that version
will run on *nix just fine... mostly what I'm wondering is if an older version
(specifically v2b6) would be used by anyone.  It's multinode safe but there's
no inter-node stuff at all.  And it does NOT work with any helper which relies
on the '/' global (most of them)
