Note that the standard signature separator is "-- " (dash, dash, space), not
"--" as you have it.

That will work. If you did want to use a signature (which is better, IMHO),
you just add to the property list:

    {..., signature type: other, other signature choice: signature "xyz"}

Where "xyz" is the name of the signature you have created, _not_ the text of
the signature. The property you tried to use 'signature type' is the _type_
of signature - i.e. 'none' (no signature), 'Random' (choose a random
signature) or 'other' (one that you can then declare)

??? I don't understand the question. 'Real returns' are what you just added
(return & return & return...). Where are you getting the leading spaces?
