Why not.
May I suggest this script must tested on various unix et then must using
'standard' tools (eg #!/bin/sh instead bash).

</I>><i> today, there's only one). Does that make sense?
</I>
Why not. I don't like the way the option is passed, I prefer /tier1 or
something like that.
Notice hangling single parameter w/o value in Catalyst can be
problematic in some case.

</I>
Yes commit to trunk. I'll have a look ASAP.

</I>
At time the apps does the minimum, but XML::RPC or JSON extension are in
my mind.
