    You should check out Cloudflare Pages and Workers if you like that. It would be right up your alley. I have several websites now that have ditched the nonsense, bloated frameworks and went back to static builds thanks to Cloudflare pages.

    Will definitely take a look. I set up a landing page in Wordpress and
    it's complete overkill - but I was able to make it look like I wanted.
    I'd like a simpler solution.

    I recently found my old batch files that I used to run my FidoNet BBS
    with. The main file was SVC.BAT written by Gee Wong (and bastardized for
    my use by me.) The errorlevel processing was marvelous... so much was
    do-able with this stuff. I spent hours playing with this 16k batch file.

    Kinda makes me want to set up a DOS box just to play some more... I am
    sure my BBS from the late 80s, early 90s is around here on floppies somewhere...

    We do tend to remove them in favor of python scripts once things get bit complicated to make maintenance a bit easier.... bash/sh scripts using sed & awk expressions can grow over time to take on a life all their own!

    I run a couple of wordpress blogs and a static blog created with a BASH script. Guess which one strikes my fancy more? :)


    Hmm let me think... perl?
