Yep, and thanks for the forward-thinking sentiment.  It's a refreshing 
change to the "I'm just going to wait until I have no choice, and complain

It's the "wx2hg" script.  It's part of the tools, and there's a decent

There are too many people to hold all the hands, but we're definitely 
giving y'all something to hold on to.
