Heheh. Yeah, that's even better. I checked out the Fibonacci example:
```s``s``sii`ki
`k.*``s``s`ks
``s`k`s`ks``s``s`ks``s`k`s`kr``s`k`sikk
`k``s`ksk
All I can think of is that it represents the sound of someone gagging
on their respirator... :)
On the other hand, it might be fun to write a program that writes
Unlambda code, 'cause I sure don't want to read it.
