Be my guest. I've been a bit busy lately (For instance, I've been gone
for almost a week, first on a club trip (BTW, state champion! But it's
another story) and then a vacation, so I gladly welcome the efforts of
anyone who tries to help out. Also, so far from what I've seen, you and
I have been thinking very similarly on this, so don't worry about
conflicts too much.

Your verb list looked pretty good. The only problem I have, and it's not
entirely related, is that it would be nice to decide how we can manage
this. If it was just me, I'd use the INI routines from PB/VISION, but
others may not have them. Any suggestions?
