# name encoding if we want, but... really, who cares? It's only useful 
# for introspection purposes and while that's certainly important, I'm 
# not sure it's worth much hassle.

# Instead, lets just give an entry number. We can have arbitrary data 
# chunk #1, #2, #3, and so on. I'm not sure it'll buy us much having 
# names attached.

What happens if two tools (say, a custom debugger and the Perl compiler)
both use the same segment number for something?  Names make collisions
less likely.

Wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in
New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. And radio operates
exactly the same way. The only difference is that there is no cat.
