This is the ultimate Linux debate. Ismael is not an average user. He is happy
to ride the self-built swiss army pushbike. Part of the appeal of Linux is
that you can simply script it yourself. If it turns out to be a useful
script, you can package it up and share it around. Some newbies actually
regard this as an interesting possibility. No, of course they're not normal
either. ;)
