Edward, I think the idea being communicated was really that the
current zigzag is a great prototype in Perl, but that the prototype
needs to be re-implemented now in C to provide for speed, and
portability to systems (such as palmpilot) that cannot run perl.
So I suppose that your very concerns about perl's size
mirror the actual impetus for the suggestion to re-implement
in C.
