Thanks, Michael. Yes, I believe I started off with a modified version  
of the Lisp bundle that had already had a first pass of the cruft-

TextMater.... Another pass is required, obviously.

OK - since I'm working on the newLISP bundle I can keep them  
separate, hopefully, and learn from the experts as I go!
