well... what i pulled is apparently version 0.0.1dev... i will give these 
problems a pass because i've done similar and thus... but for the time, it would 
seem that no one has found it or given it consideration..

what i saw initially with STDOUT was interesting... it makes sense but i need 
additional confirmation or debug output showing the process flow... level 9 i 
guess ;)

but, again, back to my previous comment about the revision level... have there 
been any more? how do i gather them? this one i pulled via browse of the SVN (or 
whatever) and copied'n'pasted it to a new script document... i might have pulled 
the base instead of what i saw as the 10th update... i dunno... i don't use 
these SVN type things :/
