Thanks for waking me up about this Wave facility. I will definitely use 
it when needed. I admit I am guilty at not looking at Wave and seeing 
what its functionality is, but I will do so now. I was aware of it in 
general, as having the ability to allow the end-user to programatically 
intercept the elements of a preprocessed file, but I had not 
specifically lloked at its functionality to see how I might use it for 
myself.
