Won't be supported (WKS, MINFO I assume?)

Indeed - I had never heard of it.

Never head of it, and it has never been requested, but it looks interesting
so I just implemented it in cs 1144.

Is there already.

Unless something changes significantly, it is unlikely to be supported. If a

Are both there.
