   While we are at it, can we also change the language a bit and add
closing lines for compound operators? I suggest pairs like if/fi,
for/rof and while/done. I'm still thinking about try/except/finally.
   That minor addition also would help to create multiline anonymous
functions -- just put the body inside def/fed.
   (Big ugly evil grin.)
