While I could get the common lisp version working on my systems, I don't
want to have to support it in our overseas factories where we need this
functionality, so I'm trying to make a go of using the older v2, written
in Python, as introducing a completely new language for a single tool
in our production operations stack is untenable.

However, I can't seem to find any traces of the documentation for the
python version other than the man page.
