i was thinking about this topic again the other day during an
idle moment. here documents are part of the parsing routine.
but they don't end up in rc's machine language. this is different
than any other construct in rc, and the reason they don't work
in functions.
they really are anomolous critters. they need to be taken out
back and shot. ☺
