This is probably a good time to ask if anyone has encountered the same 
problem as I have *saving* variables using the lispAppArchiver? When I do a 
'putShallow' of my ModelSwarm, all I get in the .scm file is this:

(list
  (cons 'modelSwarm
      (make-instance 'ModelSwarm
        #:internalZone #f
        #:syncType #f
        #:activity #f
)))

In other words, none of my own instance variables.

Marcus suggested I make sure all ivars are 'public', which they are. He 
also suggested I might need the latest snapshot, which I have installed -- 
to no avail.

Any suggestions?
