Ah, missed that one, much cleaner than my attempt, thanks.

The only thing I would miss is the "match symbol by regular expression"
feature from my script. Needing to work with C++, where each Foo has new and
exciting ideas on how to implement Foo::bar(), tracing the bar's Pokemon
style (probe em all!) often helps me maintain sanity :-)

Cheers,
