A PHP code snippet manager written in bash, possibly to be converted to Python...but no mention of converting to PHP. Are you planning a Java code snippet manager written in Fortran? Just kidding. Definitely reminds you that there are a lot of tools that can be used for any given job and lots of solutions for every problem. BTW, I split my shell scripting between bash and PHP, used to do shell scripting in Perl, but I rarely use it anymore so I'm much faster scripting in PHP. -- Steve Werby President, Befriend Internet Services LLC http://www.befriend.com/
