Also, all other definitions have a keyword or punctuation separating 
each token, probably for good reason.  This might not be desirable 
though, as it would require yet another reserved word.  (I personally 
think that make is too ubiquitous a name for it to be made a reserved 
word at this point, though.)  The word 'of' might be appropriate as in: 
make class of type.  However, 'from' seems to work better in most 
instances, and may be better or worse as it is already a reserved word.
