&gt; Just in case the request line is open and before I forget
&gt; again, what about including SUFFIX,PREFIX?
&gt; 
&gt; Should these two commands be in the server or in the
&gt; database(s)?  Or are they already in the server and
&gt; I didn't look carefully enough.

Good suggestion..  In my opinion this would be best handled, actually, by just
binding pause() and suspend() to $sys.  Then programs would have to call a
specific in-DB method to pause the task, and that method could do whatever it
wanted in terms of prefix and suffix handling, or anything else people want to
do..
