One little snip at a time.  I have done the basic analysis and know where
the big chunks of code are, and have just started the small snips to
make the driver smaller.  I have the code down to  3458 lines of
code and reduced in size by a 1/2 or so.

The only thing I can really do is change code that says:
if (x) bug_fix_y(); to bug_fix_y(); Though there are
a few other things.

In another week I might even have a small comprehensible driver.
