Ah, *wonderful* opportunity to ask a question that's been burning in my
mind for _months_. I once saw a list member post that they were maintaining
a contrib space for PM scripts - and this was one among them.
Who was that, and where is that space? I should post the query seperate
from this to get the most bandwidth on the question, but the point is this
software has already been written - why re-invent the wheel if we can glomb
onto someone else's work? :-)
