Thanks for finding the error-- I must have forgotten to save after I made 
that needless change.

So which [struct] would the message come out of when modifying an element 
of an array-- the [struct] that defines the array or the [struct] that defines the element being modified?

If it's the [struct] that defines the array, then how do you specify which 
array and which index number of the thing that's getting moved? 
If it's the [struct] of the element being modified, I suppose the same 
question applies.

Also, how do you do it in a way that handles nested arrays gracefully?
