Had a bit of a play with it, but couldn't get Merb to play (due to an issue with bundler, I think), and didn't get too far with Sinatra before having a *facepalm* moment & remembering that it won't store state between calls, so I couldn't load up an array of data & have it feed through it. Will crack on tomorrow with it, but the rest of tonight is gonna be band practice, get what I have working into crontab, then bed! Cheers, Doug.
