Oh, sure, it's easy to do, but I haven't found the time yet.  Also, if I
want to make it available to the rest of you guys, I'd have to make it
somewhat configurable, because my style is likely not what some like
(obviously my style is not like the style of whomever did the Windows GUI
front end, anyway. ;) )

What'd be really great is to use the pov parser and just put a different
back end on it.  But the pov license doesn't allow it.
