Let's try rewriting that paragraph with a few grammatical fixes:
"I wondered that as well. I think that in the interests of simplicity
though it would be better to reuse an existing switch if possible. You
could make the code quite intelligent - if multiple colons are detected
in the switch's argument then it could try all possible permutations of
colon-as-file-name-separator and colon-as-symbol-character and only
report an error if there is more than one valid solution."
There - that's better.
Cheers
Nick
