Why don't we just change the languae so it has this stuff built in?
Perhaps we can find a way that dosn't add more keywords to the
language... the little-known keyword "int" should be able to do
double-duty as boolean, and the keywords 0 and 1 should work just fine
as false and true.  Let's see what other changes are needed to the
languge... none.  Gee, it seems that maybe this was one of the uses
theese keywords were designed for. :-)
