Peter,

I'd be delighted to simplify some of the quotes.  They can't all be $$
because of the nesting, so that's out.  Also, I believe it is a good
idea to give some idea of what is going on with the tags, as I do with
similar structures in other languages.  For example, when I am writing
up a piece of SQL in perl or php, the tag looks like this:

$sql = <<SQL
...
SQL

$sql = <<<SQL
...
SQL;

Thanks as always for your prompt insights.

Cheers,
D
