[xwt-users] perl script to strip an xwar

Andrew,

You said you had started a xwar stripping perl script. Is is close and 
would you mind sending a copy?
I would send back any changes.

Right now I am fight nasty startup times using Li and I am thinking of 
stripping out everything I can and then sending down my screens as 
needed. I am also thinking of trapping each node of a tree send down 
only what is needed at that time, in addition of either fixing <tree> or 
hoping for Nitrogen to be better.
[I am at 5m17s without a tree and 17m45s with the tree, something has to 
change.]

Thanks,

-Jeff
