I don't know of any interfaces where someone scripts with the command
line tools.  Since the pilot-link libraries have been ported to many
scripting environments (Perl, Python, Java, Tcl) people choose one of
those and use that.  But expect a post to the pilot-unix group.  :)

The idea of having an option is a good one.  Possibly the maintainer can 
use that we he integrates my changes back into his release.
