I do not recommend you use this module in any  environemnts where money
is at stake due to the use of backticks, system() calls and shell file
descriptor redirections (amongst other things). As to the possibilities
for usage, you can kludge almost anything into the simple user
interfaces, the real question is whether or not using something more
dynamic like Curses::Widgets or Gtk-Perl would be appropriate.

I previously did not think that screenshots of other applications would
make sense in terms of clarity regarding what this module does or not. I
now understand there is a need for some careful thought on the matter
and I'll try to put something together for this afternoon / evening.

Thanks for the feedback!
