Hi John,

this sounds very interesting. I'll give it a try.

Though I found out something weird folks, take a look at this (from the
message window, D8 Mac):

put "a".symbol
-- #A
put "b".symbol
-- #b
put "aAbB".symbol
-- #aAbB

Why does it change the "a" to uppercase and the rest not?

Best regards, Florian
