So… spaces are not allowed in symbol and keyword identifiers according to the "spec"…
although Stu doesn't quote the phrase following the allowed chars, which reads: (other characters will be allowed eventually…) which seems to keep the door open for allowing spaces in the future (?). If space are not allowed, then it seems we have a bug in (keyword …) and (symbol …), if they will be allowed in the future, then (pr …) could/should be enhanced. -FrankS.
