Well, I'd like to try. Could you give me, say, an outline of what
might be a good way? Actually, before I changed to the error catching,
I tried to break it up into a bunch of small functions. But they got
all tangled up with some functions returning the calling of others,
that I couldn't get them straightened out. Also, some were required to
have such a long string of arguments I couldn't get them all on one
line.
