Yeah, basically that's it. After reading "Fail Fast" (PDF, 
http://www.martinfowler.com/ieeeSoftware/failFast.pdf) I'd like to 
start doing more work with design-by-contract, assertions, and any 
other goodies that will help me to catch bugs before I end up sending 
the keyboard on a one-way trip through my flatscreen.

Well, I think that this is the kind of thing that I can hack out in 
Ruby in a couple of hours ;)

 From there I'd just end up passing the script to HAMTASC as the 
preprocessing param (thanks Ralf!). I'll make sure to share my results.
