Without such an ability, a small feature of my script
will give incorrect results. I certainly do not want to
have to go through some massive effort to get this to
work; I was hoping for some already built-in Vim
capability - Vim is really such an open environment.

I guess I would not expect others to "worry over-much about it"
but, I would have liked this feature to work, so, I
do worry about it. Alas,

Thanks again
Richard
