Is not large (20K uncompressed more or less), but it's best to put in CVS anyway.
But since here in office don't have ftp/telnet, only this night I can do it.

Perfect, exactly what I want.

In fact, I was astonished of your non-intervetion for a while :).
I have one *strong* requirement: we will need a program that sniff out PC hardware
configuration. In fact, when device LMs will pop up, and even for this one, we need
to check effectevely real configuration/detected one. So a thing like a dump of
low-level variables is needed, without waiting for generic people input, which
always miss things, and add only delay. I'll put it later on parallel LM something,
I guess.
