That's *very* cool. I would suggest for object and message creation a
syntax which is more in sync with how it's written on this list using
the [obj] and [message( notation. In/outlets could still be crosses
above or on top of these. Example:

 [bang(
 x
 |    [r stop]
 |    x
 |    |
 x    x
 [until]
 x
 |
 x
 [; stop bang(

Shouldn't be too hard to adapt the Perl script but my Perl skillz
have become very rusty.

Ciao
