Google has extensive help files - have you tried searching them for anything relevant? Aside from that I don't use anything that you mentioned, although I have no doubt that there will be someone on this Users List that does something similar, in which case he or she might be able to offer some ideas. But writing to a Users List and addressing Google directly is kind of counterproductive - addressing Google directly makes it sound like you are not asking anyone on this mailing list, psychologically, and thus reduces the likelihood that someone who does have anything useful to say will think to answer.
