no problem (it got my attention).  I started implementing a store-operator 
command as well (am perhaps a third of the way through that).  In between, 
I did some fixes to make the --disable-leaks feature work reasonably well 
in the forked process that results from running an external command.  The 
diff for that's in

odd - I never noticed _that_ one before, though I often use the [Trace]
buffer to debug macros.

But usually I'm running with autocolor=50 (running in the middle of a 
&function isn't intended behavior).  I'll take a look...
