To chime in on this thread... I agree with Perrin that ">" is too simple to be used as a closing delimiter, but if 'lt', 'gt', 'ge', and 'le' are going to stay, I would like them to at the very least pay attention to the CASE setting. We actually use 'le' as a variable name in a number of our templates and 2.04d had some problems with that ;-)
