Doesn't Bluebottle use the Oberon syntax ?
NB. I wrote "knowledge". Ie. algorithm can easily be ported, independant 
of interface/appearance, which should have been factored-out.

Does Bluebottle still use the funny/awkward system programming 
syntax like:
	SYSTEM.PORTIN(p, SYSTEM.VAL(CHAR, t));   ?

What about someone writing a translator to use an intuitive syntax:
	t -> Port(p);  or eg: Byte(t) -> Mem(m);   ?
