It might be more useful that the participants in this thread apply
their talents to the general topic of what kinds of data formatters
can be implemented for advantage of AppleScript.
And the design of a scripting interface for the above.
For example:
- Formatting a record as paired list and vice versa
- String tokenizers splitting by 'line', 'sentence', 'tab', and other
stuff in the same area.
- Whether or not shallow lists of the same object type can be sorted
according to various criteria.
Like useful stuff AppleScript currently doesn't have.
