First, note the 3 line count was an embarrassing typo I noticed when 
I got the message back from the list.  It's about 30 lines.  In 
another message to the list, I have posted the code, though. h

The reason I haven't said more about sping is that I am still using 
Piddle.  I couldn't get Sping to work without a bunch of messing 
around and, as I mentioned, the last time I tried the QD backed 
didn't exist.  Since Piddle works awfully well (after one figures out 
how to use it and its sidekick, graphite, a scientific graphing 
package).
