I think this is of trivial importance and not worth implementing, but if
you want to do it, I have no problem with changing the format of the
mapfile by adding an "End" to separate options from the data.
I'll check all this crap in once I redo the caching and figure out why my
SSH CVS access is telling me that I can't access CVSROOT/history and
quitting when I try to log in. Maybe tonight, probably tomorrow.
