Totally painless,
As a former Amanda user in a professional setting (thankfully now deep
in my past), I read most of this with a mixed sense of nostalgia (oh yes
I remember that) and pleasure that I am no longer having to put up with
it, although once I got to "totally painless" I almost spat out my tea.
Since you are all set up already and it's working great for you I
wouldn't suggest you change anything but for anyone who isn't already
invested in Amanda, the process you describe there is considerably more
awkward than that offered by many more modern tools.
