Working with this right now, it's more than two files -- and I'm working with a
slightly dated version.

search.e, sequence.e, file.e, hmm.

Actually, I think it's gotten to where you can't build 4.0 with 3.1. Some of the
ifdef changes in file.e I would have to rewrite those bits the old way.

Guess I'll have to find a precompiled interpreter to compile the interpreter.
Chicken and egg.

Maybe information on how to get one should be included in the build instructions
on the wiki?
