Ok, thanks. I assume the tools you are referring to above are mostly from the
Windows world, but I'll want to stay completely in the Linux domain (and I am
not a real fan of Wine :-). Could be a nice hacking project (and maybe a good
reason to finally dive deeper into Python), but I am extremely slow with such
things, so it might take "a while". No promises whatsoever.

Thanks also for your thoughts about forks etc. Interesting stuff, definitely.

Greetings,
Frank
