It actually works reasonable nice on a fast x86-86 system. I would
not want to run it on an old VAX with a lot of users.
The right solution to automate would be to modify every position
changing procedure to do a check. But that would mean hacking a lot
of code.
The pragmatic solution is to just bind the procedure to a key and
manually activate the procedure.
