Well, then you'd better be prepared to do some programming ("What?
Jamil write code? Aieee!") since they don't support it.
And no, I don't want to hear you whinging next about how horrible this

the source code as a reference since nobody here has time to help you
sort through the details or it'd be done already) or get used to it.
