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! Kevin
