Details

Adding an atom or const char[] means you have to add code in four separate places to do it. I've had to do this a handful of times recently, and it's pretty painful each time. We should move all atom- and char[]-definition code into a single table file to simplify changes.
This would be great. I have no excuse for why we haven't done it already, since we have lotsa *.tbl matches. No matter -- I'll review promptly, probably Igor will too if you need it. /be
