Thanks for posting this Eric. I enjoyed reading your Perl. The general
design structure of your project seems pretty elegant to me ...reusable
and/or smaller pieces instead of one giant pile of unreadable spaghetti
...a sin I commit regularly.
Great hacks! Looking forward to watching this develop. Keep us posted.
