"[cDc] just released a handy li'l utility by Flack (of the NSF) called "batch-0-matic". It's rad, check it out.

"Stephen resides in a Victorian home that is a cluttered combination of museum, library and art gallery, decorated with that old-world Addam's Family charm. Not only is every inch of every wall covered with art, but all the ceilings are also decorated.
