I'm not modifying the command but I _AM_ modifying the parameters to it. The idea was to be able to specify the width of either the left- or right-hand-side of the test expression (or both). What I'll do instead is (as you also suggested to avoid future clashes) is change the name and make the command do a test of specified width (as defined by a command modifier) - it will still do what I wanted but not in the same flexible way I had envisaged.
