<g> Well, I think C calls them macros, so I thought I could get away 
with it (kind of).

The whacky thing is that when I explored a ****t of my C version of the 
Algebra software to Lisp I hid from Antlr all my macros that were 
dereferencing pointers and handles (bless the Mac) so Antler thought 
they were function calls and ... can you say "accessors"? Had I decided 
to continue down that path I would have been able to do so as if 
pointers and handles never existed.

Meanwhile GvR says: No macros for you!
