Except L wants strings to be quoted and identifiers to be C like (which
seems to give Brian fits :)  But other than that, yes, seems like there
is a lot of overlap.

We've wacked the L stuff to make L be a proc and it returns the value
of the last statement so you can do all the 

	if [L {a + b > c << 2}] { ... }

sorts of stuff.  If someone can think of a verb that means "expr" that 
isn't "expr" but is better than "L" we'll stick it in.
