Hi,
Just to clarify Richard's post, when I went to the website
it was made clear that some form of website is necessary
as the Perl script has to run on a web server.
Consequently it may not be suitable for those who use
*exclusively* EPOC machines and have no website.
Otherwise I'd guess it's a good solution for anyone
needing that kind of information!
Take care,
Phil.
