:)  Glad it is working for you now.

One thing I have noticed since I've been using it.  I think I have  
the wrong arguments to scp.  I was being clever and made scp copy the  
permissions bits in both directions.  I now believe this is a bad  
idea.  If you change the permissions on the remote file while  
editing, then saving will change them back, which is a hassle.

I haven't updated the tarball on my web page, but given that all the  
copying is in the scripts, you can change the args to ssh yourself.   
Or even replace ssh with a completely different transport mechanism  
if you're so inclined.  It just needs to be able to copy the file  
both ways.

Be well,

Will           :-}
