I for one congratulate Mike on surviving this ordeal!

Personally, I use an Excel spreadsheet that I wrote a
few years ago to check my logs and generate my scores,
then I can either print the summaries or write them in
manually. I can generate a set of CSVs from there, but
cabrillos can get downright ugly. I suspect the best
bet would be some sort of VC++ or VB.net 'translator'
for the cabrillo...but they can be very timeconsuming
to debug...(everytime that you think you made a
program idiot-proof, a more sufficiently-talented
idiot comes along!)
