Hi Graham,

Two small things for today.

As a matter of fact, I would have liked that comments in the snippets or examples included in the documentation have a better syntactic layout; so to explain myself, we engage people, in French typography, to avoid such phrasing as :

"I like my mother, we
 love our granny."

and prefer :

"I like my mother,
 we love our granny."

since it is not typeset on one single line.

I know, I'm quite boring, but... it is just like I hate singers breathing and then cutting a word in the middle just because they are "short on oxygen" (be cause is not because).

Cheers
Jean-Charles
