OK.

Yes, that's right. These are pre-cooked classes and functions.

To do it manually, you need two steps:

   (out (blob Article 'body)
      (prinl "a really long text") )
   (put!> Article 'body T)

If you put 'NIL' instead of 'T', the blob is deleted. It will be removed
the next time by 'dbgc'. Alternatively you could remove it immediately:

   (call 'rm (blob Article 'body))
   (put!> Article 'body NIL)

Cheers,
