*bump*
I don't mind doing some more legwork, but I could really use a nudge in the right direction. Aaron mentioned that I could use the console code as a template for what I'm doing. Can someone point me at the right place to look in the source tree? I did a little bit of poking around, but I got a bit lost trying to figure out which module to begin searching.
