True... if anyone is actually interested, I'd sign up for doing a new
version that is portable.  I'd like to be able to use it natively on
Linux.

I've removed the networking stuff and signed it in.  It should compile
now.

That's what I do.  Actually, I'm considering a combined project: I've
kind of wanted to add a schematic generator to gnetman, and the same
code could be used to generate DataDraw schemas from text descriptions.
I see little reason to have to draw schemas graphically, you just need
to be able to view them graphically.

That would eliminate the difficult part: writing the GUI.  And we might
get another fun.
