Hi Hugh - Thanks so much for this detailed reply. This really helps me get over the hump of initial understanding. I had gone through many of the tutorials, including the VS-B-1, but just wasn't putting it all together in my head. So this really helps. Now that you have helped me get this first script working, I believe that most of the other tutorials should be a lot easier to try out for me. Thanks greatly.
Also, concerning the problems with installation on Ubuntu, I will post the messages about that shortly. Thanks for being such a great resource and fount of understanding.
