The alpha stage is beginning next week; still enough time to fix the
Tools and Demos.  I can do some of the work, however, if I have to do
it all, I'll just throw out the majority of that stuff.

So -- if every dev "adopted" a Tool or Demo, that would be quite a
manageable piece of work, and maybe a few demos can be brought up
to scratch instead of be deleted.

I'll go ahead and promise to care for the "Demo/classes" subdir.

Four shall be the number of spaces thou shalt indent, and the number of thy
indenting shall be four. Eight shalt thou not indent, nor either indent thou
two, excepting that thou then proceed to four. Tabs are right out.
