No biggie, I'm not planning on doing anything major with it right now, just making sure that I keep from making changes that break it (and, of course, it's always great to have a new toy to fiddle around with ;).

Of course, but I do think it's better style to use `#:' keywords; `#:' implies this thing is specially interpreted by the reader, which makes much more sense than symbols being special because they start with `:' (even though that's traditional lisp, tradition is sometimes a very stupid thing). -- Greg
