       needed a documented version of the code for a client of mine who
       thought it would be good if the toolkit were publicly available
       under an open source license. So I took Jeff's code, refactored
       again (to sync with the changes I had done in the meantime), and
       added documentation.  This resulted in TBNL 0.1.0 (which
