Hmmm.....  Wonder how long that'll take to sift down into my Debian/unstable 
packages lists.....

Taking a look-see...  Hmmm.....  Fits the bill quite nicely.  I'll probably use 
GConnHttp when it gets through, I'm already using the GConn stuff in another 
little project.  But until then, that piece of code should prove to be a huge 
help.  And who knows.  I may even learn to use those GIOChannel things 
properly.  :)
