Which is basically the same thing as hacking the Python script except for a) having to start from scratch, and b) having to work in a language I have little experience with :-) I was sort of hoping someone had already done the above steps and would be willing to share :-D Oh well, it won't take more than a couple of hours to whip the Python into shape, and has the advantage of being self-contained, aside from some standard Python modules (so no installing from CPAN or the like). Thanks for the suggestion though :-) ----------------------------------------------- Israel Brewster Computer Support Technician II Frontier Flying Service Inc. 5245 Airport Industrial Rd Fairbanks, AK 99709 (907) 450-7250 x293 ----------------------------------------------- > -- > Mathieu ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Register Now for Creativity and Technology (CaT), June 3rd, NYC.
