Yeah, its well above my level. I never got past small mods to other peoples 
scripts myself. Theres always times I wish I knew Perl better though (and awk

Thats fair enough, the idea is only to save a lot of typing. If you have to 
add some functions by hand you still save a lot of work...

Exactly, except that it returns multiple lines if there is more than one 
instance of the declaration (as silly MS are want to do). I can easily work
