For some SeqFans probably unnecessary, because they have tools
to format new sequences in internal format (?)  On my personal
wish list "send a comment for THIS sequence" would come before
new arrays... ;-)  And you could not run superseeker before the
submission with a new "submit array" form, this would require
an automatical dupe-filter...

...maybe an "input 2D-array" form could create simple sequences
ready for a lookup.  Or better, maybe superseeker could check
input given as 2D-array rows, and return "raw" internal format.

What's the difference to the existing "tabl" formats ?

In my script collection only one tries to create rationals with
some weird rounding tricks for x = y / 11!  In theory you could
transform a string of rationals locally (on your system) into a
boolean n(1),n(2),n(3),... OR d(1),d(2),d(3),... OEIS lookup -
with JavaScript, Java, NetRexx, or a similar language (PHP ?)
