Your script attempts to assign to an element of FUNCTAB. This is not
allowed and will be a fatal error if that part of the script is ever reached.

Your script is also totally illegible.  You should format your code
better and not use so many ?: instances and embedded assignment and
concatenations.

Since your script runs only on Windoew, I cannot test it on Linux,
perhaps Eli will try.

However, it is serving the useful purpose of stress testing the pretty
printing code. I've already found and fixed one bug and am working on
some others.
