Long ago and far away, I started a "binary libtool" project.
It handled the command line options and basically acted as a
shell scriptlett selector (the code selected depending on the
operating mode and other conditions), plus it was intended as
a framework for moving more interpreted logic into C code.
It's been a few years now, though.....
