#
# Animal Taxonomy is a favorite subject of specialized rule-based programming
# languages. With some creative construction, C-Kermit can solve that problem
# in the same manner. The cheetah.kr script exposes the same look and feel of
# many rule-based programs. Many configuration problems in computer
# administration and network should be solvable similarly, provided the rule
# set can be identified.
#
# This demonstration comes in two modules: rule-engine and cheetah.
# To run the demonstration, tell Kermit to TAKE the cheetah module.
#
# Here is cheetah:
