Pete,

FYI

This is working now In Orac. I couldn't detect any increase in parsing time
either 
However, I've restricted it to work only for constants that are associated with
functions that eventually lead back to the specific machine_func() call that
links to a dll. I'll send an update to the Recent Contributions page in a few
days.
Some may find it useful..
