I'm with you charlie.  aol currently does not have a command line
interface to there services and even if they did, I'd bet most of them
are only accessible through a gui so we would have a huge fight to gain
access to aol in this manner.

         I wish I could be as optimistic.  Actually, we will have to
demand
that they keep the command line text runtime or they will simply do the
migration thing where the GUI is updated and the text is
forgotten.  Witness the disappearance of DOS.
