As much as I totally agree with you, the problem is that if I
spent all my time publishing each small script I wrote, I'd never
have time to write small scripts :-)
I've removed local config details and pushed it up to github.
Hopefully there's enough info contained to enable someone else to
make use of it / learn from it / improve it.

When I wrote that, neither git or scp to switches were available.
It's quite likely that there are at least two obvious improvements
that can be made.
Cheers,
Matthew
