This is easy enough; I'll do that tomorrow morning.

That's a lot trickier, and I'm not convinced it would be worth it.
OTOH, the cheatsheet is a fairly small file, so there's no harm in
fiddling with those values.  And since we're not printing these
out verbatim, we coudl add a \paper{} in the code itself.

ok, I've convinced myself that it's at least worth trying these
new values and taking a look.  :)
