Hi Paul,

I think the output looks spot on and the tests cover the twelve ways of
combining 3 × 2 × 2 settings.
Sequence: all existing existing-and-non-existing
Message: all stated
Empty: empty noempty
What if ‘uip/mark -l 42’ is done where 42 doesn't exist? I think that
should complain 42 doesn't exist to be consistent with a mark to add to
a sequence, or a scan of it, and you probably get that behaviour ‘for
free’, but I'm just checking.
Sorry for the extra labour, I realise it's easier to just heckle and lob
empty beer bottles. :-)
