"RSN" is short for "Real Soon Now" - an expression so overused and underintended that it has a strict tongue-in-cheek context.
My indexer has never (six years and counting) come out of the box. It's still waiting for me to have enough leisure time to "play".
I have a fondness for analytic geometry and would probably have taken Scott's route (written my own SBP programs) if I'd had a pressing need.
