The answer to the question seems to be that there is indeed such a beast. It is 'developed' in Kernighan and Plauger's book "Software Tools". And the source code, if you are too lazy to key it in for yourself from the listings in the book, can be purchased for the price of a mag-tape from the publisher, McGraw-Hill. Several people mentioned that they had brought up this implementation on their local non-unix computers. Few mentioned anything about how well they liked it once they had it up. I'm not sure how to interpret that datum, but I did make that observation.
