Well, the thing is, it's my work machine, and this would involve making a requisition, forms, and fighting a world-class bureaucracy machine that also crushes my will to live. So, you see, it's tricky.

I'm not too convinced of a significant program written in Python, though, as in my experience, this generally ends up providing stack dumps on its stderr.

If I'd write something, it would probably have a Mac OS X slant, with just enough portability to take it to work so I can avoid killing myself. That said, I could sure enjoy your visit, if I can avoid your stabs. ;-)
