The intermediate type /is/ needed---it's a (hidden) parameter to your `encode' and `decode' functions. Why do you think it shouldn't be?
Because I couldn't see the woods for the trees. I think I had almost figured out what I was asking (the impossible) before your message appeared. I've actually been getting quite confused over this for quite a while and got a lot of it sorted out while I wrote the original email. That's why the subject doesn't match the body at all - I completly rewrote the message several times as I figured out what was going on, but forgot to update the subject. Thanks, Sam
