Jane, thanks so much. I've just installed it and tried it out, and I think it will be a great timesaver.
The two modifications I think I'm going to try to make--and this will be an incentive to dust off my very ancient and very rudimentary macro-editing skills--will be to add subfield $b (codes) to the 33x fields, and to see if I can get 040 subfield $e to its now-recommended place between $b and $c. But that will be a project for some later time. I am in awe of people who can actually write these things.
