Hi Kaspar,

I applaud your efforts here but you should heed the warnings about using
a colon as a separator within a field.  I think using separate fields
would be cleaner and more reliable in the long run.

There are a lot of users who would like atomic symbols but no one can
ever seem to agree on what that really means.  This has been discussed
many times on this mailing list.  I wish you the best of luck in this
endeavor.  I have a feeling that you will need it.

Cheers,

Wayne
