Hi Mikołaj,

Aside from the machine.c, there is just a simple header and shell
script pair (conv-mach.{h,sh}) to set various configuration macros and
compilation options.

Out of curiosity, what's the goal of this project? I can easily see a
pedagogical purpose in it (XMPP conversations being easier to read),
but I might be missing something else.
