I considered that but found my tcl fu was seriously lacking. These are literally the first 3 lines of tcl I ever wrote in my life, and this program is one huge 11,000+ line monolith, so I'm naturally scared to make more than very, very, small changes :)

In any case, as you said, most people who know what they're doing can use the CLI to get there anyway...
