No that's fine. I didn't wish this to be an "official guide", just an
extra help in case anyone wanted to do similar things. Sorry if this
was the wrong place to post.

If someone does have time to correct the misleading things I would be
most grateful, as obviously I do not wish to spread misinformation!

I make it easy to contact me through the site in case anyone has any
questions, especially in the forum.

Thanks for looking,

Amadeus
