Doh.

This seems like a cool project. I'll be looking for it.

Let me know if you're interested - it would be only a few lines of code on our side and you could add listeners, for example, using the Cocoa package ( http://rforge.net/Cocoa/ ).

I don't have any Obj-C experience, but this seems like it's in the direction of what I want. Thanks, Simon.
