Yeah, that sort of template would work in about any tagger. My problem
was that when I first looked at his filename I thought there was a
leading space in front of the "17" and when I realized there was not I
didn't modify some of what I wrote. Even if there *had* been a leading
space a termplate could be made from the filename. What can I say? It
was late...I was tired...
