Finally implemented perceptual brightness thing.

% umgather - Run a processing unit and collect multiple outputs

% ugather :: 
%    unit({}, A@typelist(K), _) ~'live processing unit with K outputs',
%    T:natural              ~'number of iterations to run (can be inf)',

%       chunk :: natural/1     ~'print progress every chunk interations';

% -> B@typelist(K) ~'collected outputs'.
%
% This function accepts the live processing unit associated
% with an arrow (as created by with_arrow). The arrow must
% have zero inputs and one output. The requested number of outputs
% are collected into an array and returned. If inf outputs are
% requested, the system is run until an EOF exception is caught.
