Thanks for your reply and what you suggest is exactly what I am
after. Unfortunately I'm sure if the syntax is quite correct in the
code you list. Both xemacs and emacs complains about it. Since my lisp
expertise is, well, nonexistent, could you help me out a bit? I notice
that there is an unmatched number of open and closed parenthesis, which
smells of being wrong, but I'm not sure how they should be.

Thanks.
