James,
keep an eye on your email. A solution is on the way. This is one of those problems which is easier to solve with C (or other language).

To everyone,
There seems to be a reasonable number of times when it would be convenient to have some place where we could make files available to each other. Anyone have any suggestions? My own web sites are not suitable for this kind of thing but perhaps someone does have somehwere we could use as a depository of useful stuff to go with kixtart.
