Out-standing!

Hey Jerry, if you'll use it like you used it before, I'll write that
program in Python so you can use it on Windows, Mac and Linux. If
you're interested, please give me the specs (in other words, tell me
exactly how the program worked), and I'll give you the program. I'll
license it free software so anyone can use it.

I already have a bunch of friends who would use such a thing.

Thanks
