Thanks for your thoughts. Yeah, I don't expect it to be anything doable, I just figured it was a neat thought. The reason for the distinct triple braces are, I must assume, to make it unique. If single square brackets were used, I guess there'd have to be some additional condition on the content between the brackets and I'm sure this would make things more complicated. But still, it *would* be pretty me thinks ;-)
