the trick? As for types, I'm wishy-washy about what more could be done. I 
don't think I want a heavily typed xTalk, and CompileIt! did let you 
influence what types were used internally. But maybe it should support better 
typing when you really want, say, a "float" that works like a float.

I prefer Put boolean 4 at pointer myPointer.
