Don't bet on it - we have a holiday here, and tonights wee hours are
not for you.

However, I think Craig has a point in saying that a tutorial for the shell
is missing. I don't think something fancy like JD has in mind is
really necessary. Rather I am thinking of a few pages which
introduce a small but realy world piece of code. The tutorial should
make the user type the code in (pacticing indentation and routine
info). Then launch the shell, compile, debug and run the code.

When I find time....
