Funny that I have been thinking about this same thing for the past couple of weeks myself. One option I found was qscanq (http://mysite.verizon.net/vze1ypud/software/qscanq/). It is nice and lightweight, unfortunately it does not fulfill all of my current requirements. Though it might fulfill others requirements. -- Sean
