Crap. Okay, that's it. Perl is just gonna have to go to two-
character escape codes.
Well, if we stick to the model of a lowercase/uppercase pair
for this proposed feature, that leaves hH, iI, jJ, kK, mM, oO, vV,
none of which strike me as particularly intuitive. \o for "open" and
\k for "klose"? Oy.
Suggestions?
