Fair question. I just realized that the how to get the source is a bit 
hard to find.

That page is here:
http://www.anthillpro.com/html/products/anthillos/for-developers.html

I can dig in to the code and point you in the right direction later this 
afternoon if you'd like (I've got to run to a meeting right now).
