'
I edited the coms of HASH to embed all your RECORDS, MACROS and other compiler declarations inside of a (DECLARE': DONTCOPY --) so that they don''t get loaded with the compiled file.  This is generally a good idea to do to any "package" you give out for others to load--assuming, of course, that the compile time definitions are of no use to a user of the package at runtime.'
'
(This was prodded by my wondering why a macro CREATEKEY I had on one of my files was getting redefined.)'
'
We''re quite enjoying HASH, by the way.'
