Clever. This will come in handy. :-)

Yes, I already read it and converted it to spad. However, I'd like to
have it extended to what Maple can do (chosing different branches and
handling of complex numbers).

I would be very interested in implementing both LambertW and whatever
else is needed for the function to be used when solving equations of the
w*exp(w) form. I'll probably need some help. I'll look into it in a few
days. I've got project deadlines coming up real soon. :-)
