Obtaining Hummingbird-like behavior

Harold,

I'd like to contribute.  My handicaps would be

Time.  I'm moving from Texas to San Diego in a few weeks.  Same company,
better job.  You know what that involves.

Skill.  I'm but a humble system admin - my coding skills (basic PERL, shell
scripting aside) are weak to non-existent*.

So .. yah, I'm for it, to scratch an itch and reap fame and glory.  Give me
a nudge to set me on the path?

~Brian

* I actually 'learned' COBOL and dBaseIII/Clipper '87 a long, long time ago,
when I was young and foolish, but I'm not sure how much of that training
would apply.

Does this mean that you are working on a rootless mode for Cygwin/XFree86?
