Thanks. I was having one of those "run the one you just compiled, not the
one in your executable path" moments.

I should be brushing my teeth so I can go to bed, but I just checked, and
when I run the one I just compiled, It's there.

I'll have more questions later, hopefully whether you want the
keyboard definition after I make sure I got it right.

(I am going to brush my teeth and go to bed. It's now 2:27 here.)
