No insult taken!  I realized that it wasn't quite what you were looking
for, but, as you say, it's better than nothing.  One of these days, I'm
going to tackle PHP and make something that will save settings for
individual users.  One day, Real Soon Now...

And, I think we're in agreement on the use of tools, too.  Why use a
manual screwdriver when a powered one is faster, easier and hurts less?
  Still, I've met with an amazing amount of hostility and snobbery
towards those tools.  (Not on this list, of course, but elsewhere.)

Cheers!
Jim
