I can't give you an example, never having done this, but if you would post
a few lines of your own code which you thought would work, someone can probably
point out the error of your ways more easily than writing something from
scratch.  (Of course, we'll shortly see a complete working solution from
someone anyway, but in general this is the better way to proceed with such
a problem.)
