Why not?

It's just getting scripts and writing them out with object descriptors 
to a text file.  Tedious to write, but not atom-splitting.

I used to write dumpers every time I picked up another xTalk, but after 
while it occurred to me that I never actually do anything with the 
dumps.  They're boring to read, and for working with code I find it far 
more helpful to work with it in vivo, so I've put the time into things 
like script search tools instead.
