Dear Alexander

Thanks for yor comment.

I shall look into what genappup does but two reasons against my using it are: I'm currently liking doing things explictly and manually, partly to learn; I've moved away from using rebar.

Reading that page though, I realise I might have written some incorrect appups. (Will go and check)

Best wishes

Ivan
