Ah, bold words! :-) If you are happy with running RKH twice a day then
that is fine. If you can run it more often then so much the better, but
that will be for you to experiment with.

I should have added that, as far as I remember, it is possible to run
the 'update' option with the '-c' option. The next release will handle
this better, allowing the user to run '-c', along with '--update' and/or
'--versioncheck'. However, I do not personally do this. I would rather
run the system checks very frequently, and the other options much less
frequently.
