It's been two hours since Alex wrote this.  I would have expected a 
short script using the Revolution shell command (or the workaround for 
OS X for Revolution 1.1.1) by now.  I just glanced at the site and it 
looks looks like binaries with SSL are available for Windows, OS X and 
lots of Linuxes.

We need more list showoffs!!
