Aside, I just noticed that the Formation UDT and the formation SUB
have the same name, no warning at all. I hadn't realised that these
inhabit total different namespaces.

Currently rewriting the formation editor; that one literally brought
tears to my eyes. It has it all: two completely different menus
sharing the same loop with some big IF blocks, a profusion of single
letter variable names, FIVE! different cursor variables (pt, csr,
bcsr, csr2, csr3) putting anything in menustuf.bas to shame, negative
array starting indices, xintgrabber and zintgrabber, a dozen GOSUBs, a
reimplementation of standardmenu, multiple IF statements on one line,
a hundred-odd magic constants, and Mike's lovely explanation of the
off-by-ones in the max() array. Well, at least it doesn't have
inconsistent indentation
