No, math is not my strong point.  I am an engineer, not a mathemageer.  I
will be lucky to make it through Hoare's math.

You and I think alike.  I spend most of my thinking trying to makes things
simpler.  We can work together to make Prothon stackless implementation as
simple as possible.  Don't worry about my "thread-thinking".  I will not let
it get in the way of keeping tasklets simple.  You can hit me over the head
whenever you catch me making things complex.

That would be great but I don't think that will be possible.  I will need to
make good porting tools so they can be stolen or rewritten one by one
easily.  We can improve them as we steal them.
