The profiler was written after only programming in Python for 3 weeks. As a result, it is
probably clumsy code, but I don't know for sure yet 'cause I'm a beginner :-). I did work hard
to make the code run fast, so that profiling would be a reasonable thing to do. I tried not to
repeat code fragments, but I'm sure I did some stuff in really awkward ways at times. Please
send suggestions for improvements to: jar@netscape.com. I won't
promise any support. ...but I'd appreciate the feedback.
