This is wonderful, since I now have 6 files less to maintain.
Also I think Tim's comment is very valid. Not that the inlined
code costs much, but the debugging issue really counts.

That means I will keep the macro style for speed, not expanding
it since this is easier to maintain, and I add an extra function
for "the" action.

Takes a day or two.

cheers - chris
