That looks quite helpful! I will see if i can get sth. working after Steve has pushed the next version of his script. But i think will give testing on linux definitely the priority. In my opionion it is better to concentrate on one platform first :) Best Regards, Sebastian > Steve, great job once again! I haven't had to time to try it yet. A > few observations/questions.
