OK, sorry, my mistake, must be a new command.

I remember reading Klaus' post now. Hmmm.

Yes, import snapshot works for me too, but I'm still fiddling with the
scripts to extract it and send it to a folder. Maybe I'll get back into it
tonight if I don't fall asleep on my keyboard. I spent the better part of
the last three days whacking back about 500-600 giant sword ferns. I'm
pretty much numb.

Thanks for your help.
