Okay -- thanks for the ideas.  All of that would be a bit too complicated
for this example of course (as I think you probably also agree).

Yes, indeed. But the error handling is important and non-trivial.
Maybe a more detailed example could be put in an external file?

If you can construct something that is not too lengthy, and is readable,
complete, and free of obvious bugs, I'd consider including it in a man page.
(But I appreciate that this would be quite a bit of work, and I'm not
expecting you to do this.)

Thanks,

Michael
