Hi Joli,

program, or something that's really unusual or off the wall.

Well, what are you starting from? When you say you wrote a hack,
do you mean something in script-fu, or perl-fu, or perhaps a C
plug-in?
The Windows part of Windows Digital Media Hacks limits this to 
Script-Fu and C... unless the hack consists of one of the other bindings.

I was hoping you could forward this email to someone at the company 
who can add the spice it needs to make it into the book. It shouldn't 
involve too much - the hack is written - it only needs the hack 
angle. 
Well, show us the hack :)
Michael

Sorry - no company here. We're all volunteers.

I'm forwarding your mail to the developers list, perhaps you can
follow up with some more detail on what you've done so far.

Cheers,
Dave.
