It's supposed to be malcoded. I've made a "datum finder" which walks
down directories attempting to read all datums from every file. If
get-datum raises &lexical, it skips the rest of the file. I made this
so I can search Scheme code for forms that match patterns :) I was
testing it by making it eat through my entire home directory :)
