It's alright, I picked up on it as I was copying it in :)

Anyway, here's another revision updating the documentation. I had a go
at making the environment types more like the service types, in the
sense that configuration objects would be tied to the environment rather
than the machine, but that would involve introducing an 'environment'
object, which I thought to be too verbose.

#+BEGIN_SRC scheme
(list (machine
       (system %system)
       (environment
        (environment managed-host-environment-type
                     (machine-ssh-configuration
                      (host-name "localhost")
                      (identity "./id_rsa")
                      (port 2222))))))
#+END_SRC

I suppose this could be avoided if I were to expose a different
constructor for 'machine'.

#+BEGIN_SRC scheme
(list (machine %system
       (environment managed-host-environment-type
                    (machine-ssh-configuration
                     (host-name "localhost")
                     (identity "./id_rsa")
                     (port 2222)))))
#+END_SRC

I don't know if that's any better. Thoughts?
