+    <p>

+    Compass was first designed to be a cli app and then hacked into a web app.

+    The codebase needs to be refactored such that the main processing code is

+    separated from the display functions(probably into separate files) and made

+    modular so that adding more features (<a

+    href="https://trac.torproject.org/6612">#6612</a>) is easy. For example, the

+    main processing logic could be in compass.py, whereas print_groups() and other

+    display related functions could be part of a separate cli.py; web.py would also

+    have to modified to make use of this new modular code. Bonus points for adding

+    features to compass(<a href="https://trac.torproject.org/6619">#6619</a>, <a

+    href="https://trac.torproject.org/6612">#6612</a>, <a
