    Well, I thought about compressing it and bundling the results with a decompressor and eval, but the only type of compression I'm very familiar with is Huffman, and even after I renamed some variables and things to cut down on the number of distinct characters, the character set is still too broad for the size of the program, and so by the time I have to use only six of every eight bits to ensure that all the characters are printable, I can't get compression good enough to make room for the decompressor and tree, much less come out seventy-some keystrokes shorter.
