Nope, I tried and failed! Actually, HNMS in itself shouldn't be hard
to port since it's 100% X/Motif, but the mess come from the ISODE7.0
package which is required. There's a whole bunch of functions that
are just rewriting of stuff available in libc, they rewrote it for
sake of portability, but it's really really ugly and last time I tried
to clean the thing a bit, I end up getting back to TkIned :*>
