   Thank you.   
   That page  whetted my appetite. An preliminary web search for tutorial   
   type info hinted at possibilities. I've been a computer _user_ since the   
   60's. Back in the day I did assembly coding for the 8080 - little since.   
      
   Can you point me to a introduction/tutorial/??? aimed at my goals?   
   Basically I need to get an idea of what questions I should be asking.   
   If retirement isn't for education, what use is it ;}   
      
   TIA
