The original poster, to which my post was a reply, claimed to have
searched for the answer in the newsgroups and not found anything. Silly
me for taking him at his word.
Regardless, it doesn't give you the excuse to jump on me so just back
off.
Cheers,
Brian

That reply was a fish. The previous reply was teaching you to fish.
If you had bothered to do your elementary background research, you
would already have seen all those scripts, and read the announcements.
Similarly, if after being told that it was all over the archives, you
had bothered to go and search and browse those archives, you would have
found those scripts.
If your immediate reaction to any problem is to sit there helplessly
until someone spoon-feeds you the answer, you have only yourself to
blame for your total lack of action. Nobody else can move your own
muscles for you.
It is, of course, entirely up to you, whether you want to be a
helpless victim of circumstance, or take some degree of responsibility
for your life and what happens in it.
cheers,
