This is my only concern with the name. I dunno. Categorizing scripts is a much tougher job than categorizing modules, which is tough enough. I think the overarching rule should be, If a user had need for a script like this, where would she most likely go looking for it? Given that, a top-level category like "Device" might not be bad, although maybe "Hardware Interface" would be even better. Category names are just English expressions, right? -- John Douglas Porter I no longer love the color of your sweaters.
