I'm not modifying the command but I _AM_ modifying the parameters to it. 
  The idea was to be able to specify the width of either the left- or 
right-hand-side of the test expression (or both).

What I'll do instead is (as you also suggested to avoid future clashes) 
is change the name and make the command do a test of specified width (as 
defined by a command modifier) - it will still do what I wanted but not 
in the same flexible way I had envisaged.

Happy New Year!!
