I should have placed a smiley...

Definition of rules shouldn't require knowledge of some kind of exotic 
computer language. That's why scheme scripts wouldn't do the trick for 
me. It is pure economy: How many schematics can I check manually while I 
am busy fighting with syntax problems?

While the rule language should be powerful, it must be easy to
grasp -- at least for the most common cases.
