Uhh, hold on a few seconds before you do that.

I started writing a gui to do this on saturday, in wxPython - I didn't get very
far becuase I had some weekend commitments and stuff, but I can continue
working on it.

The start of said program is attached - its definately a work in progress - 
and don't expect it to do anything just yet. :)
