I am reminded of the SGI `burrito` command - it was all that was
necessary, apparently, to send your order to the local food-delivery
company via the company's fax server.
I believe that `burrito` was aware of the different entrances to or
parts of the SGI campus to which you might wish your snack delivered,
and of course this must be specified by the user. Defaults were read
from the user's .burritorc file, but could be overwritten by flags
such as --extra-cheese (or whatever - sorry, we don't have burritos
in the UK).
Stroller.
