ARGH!!!!
This does not appear to work.  This is very disappointing
to me.  When I designed WIDEn-N back in 1994 and presented 
it to Kantrnonics, I defined it to work as WIDEx-y where x was
a wildcard with no restrictions.  Apparently they implemented
it as a required digit.  Thus we have no flexibility to use it
as an enforcer.... DRATS.

Back to square 1.  Looks like the best approoach so far remains
the New n-N Paradigm and the enforcement of large N's through
the use of SSn-N and LINKn-N and adding WIDE2-2 as an alias 
in non-n-N digis so that it is supported everywhere...

de Wb4APR, Bob
