Either way, I love what you have done!

I know it doesn't really matter, but have you tried getting it to work through X11 as an app Engtech?

Oh, there's no prob getting it to run on Mac or Linux. It's trying to build a self-executing install that's a pain. You can run it on any machine that has Perl (even my cellphone supports Perl) if you go through and install around 8-10 other modules.

If it wasn't for stupid accent issues... grr...

I can't believe how much time I've wasted trying to get this thing to work on Linux / Mac. And it's not a problem with getting the program to run, it's all in trying to get it to run as a self-executing program.

It'll run on anything that has perl... but there's some modules that need to be installed for it to run. I'll see about including them as part of the source bundle to make it not require any installation for unix as well.

It didn't grab your categories.

It's probably because of accents in your category names. I'll see what I can do to reproduce the problem and fix it.

Excellent! Thanks for all your responses.

I don't care about saving the password or not. When I run these sorts of programs I always set a dummy password before -- run the program -- then change back to a regular password later.

I might make that a "convience" advanced option... so by default don't save, and the power users who don't care can force it to save the password.

Might need to install a lot of modules though. Not for the faint of heart :)

@boles:
- including HTTP:// is a good idea
- password only displays when you look at it, it is rot13'd in the config file. I thought about encrypting it, but honestly it is less work for me when the user can see that they typed the password wrong :)
- all settings are saved
- I'll fix the text to make it clearer
