Sorry, Chris, my *real* C-novice days were back before you knew me, and
the code from then really is dead and buried.  Thank heavens. :-)  I'd
been using C for about five years by the time I started working at utzoo.
This is not to say there isn't some slightly embarrassing code from more
recent times...
