The point is that the Application you get from tvmovie creats
access-files. But you don't need the application, you grab the files
that the application takes as it's input-data directly.

This way you don't need any Windows-machine. Otherwise you needed a
windows-machine for getting the data into the access-files.

As i said this could be made into a "Linux-Only" solution (Where
"Linux-Only" means that you don't need/require a Windows-machine). Let's
see what i can find out this afternoon.

Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as 
bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women. No, the Real Programmer
wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated, 
cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous.
