actually I'm glad you mention it. I was meaning to switch to bool, but
then I wasn't sure whether such would be liked as a "side effect" of
another change. You indicating (as to my reading) that it would, I'll
be happy to make type adjustments here and elsewhere (there are a lot
more places where in particular "bool" is meant when "int" is used),
when touching stuff anyway.
