I can certainly see it being useful when modifying nickle and such. I just think it's overkill for manipulating text files. That's especially true since a lot of people in this forum seem to be interested in the hacks but may not have development experience. There's nothing wrong with what you said. I just felt that it was taking a simple task and making it more complex!
