That sparse isn't installed on my systems; reading it's usage it's
somewhat of a shame it wasn't called s-parse instead of sparse.  I'd
expect a program that does what mine does to be called sparse, or at
least to start with that.  I suppose sparse-filter might work as a
name, but I'm very open to constructive suggestions.
