83 without tons of dependencies: something he could burn on his LiveCD, or that
84 would run unmodified on his old X11 terminal at work, or even on his palm pilot.
85 Something that would not grow to half a gigabyte of virtual memory after running
86 a couple of hours. Something minimalistic in design, with deep Unix roots, that
87 is portable, reliable and keeps compatibility with existing code on every new
88 release. Larry the Cow liked it.
