Richard,

Could you please fix a separator (and test for it in your lisp code)? 
Otherwise people will start to use different ones
which will make it harder to maintain backwards compatibility in case of 
implementation
changes.

I vote for ":" (like in c), "->" has an established meaning in other 
languages (accessing instance variables of
objects). "::" has an established meaning as well.
