What the hell is this 'for else' loop !! :D First time I see this
statement for years.
I'd never thought I'd still learn something that basic.
My first impression is that the mechansim is not that obvious. MRAB's
need for a comment tends to confirm this.
I'll try to remember that anyway. Nice addition.
The comment is there for the OP. _I_ don't need it! :-)
