Not quire following that, but...for things which are identical, you can 
easily enough use duplicate.  For things which are *almost* identical, 
you need to make an actual copy to change the thing that's different. 
How about...some kind of macro?  I know, just make a .inc file for it, 
but if there were a way to do this inside Moray...?  I dunno.  ^^;
