Thanks. But what is flex?

1. Flex electrical cable: I've got plenty of that out in the shed, but it 
doesn't seem to
be relevant here (unless I decide that it is all too much, and decide to hang 
myself with
it!)

2. Single tasking operating system for the Motorola 6800: I once programmed in 
6800
assembler, but I rather doubt if you can buy it, or them, these days.

3. Bodybuilding magazine: too late for that!

4. Adobe application builder - widely criticised for being inflexible: not what 
I'm
looking for.

Perhaps I ought to just give up, and get somebody else to do the job for me, 
but then I
would get the solution to somebody else's problem.  

Also, although my mental agility is less than it used to be, so that I can't 
really handle
working in multiple environments, I still enjoy programming, and it does keep 
my brain
from going rusty!

I have had what seems to me to be a bright idea, and I wondered if anybody had 
tried
anything similar, and could cast any light either on how to go about it, or on 
problems
that I might encounter. 

Just telling me to use something else, without explaining what it is or why it 
is better,
is not really being helpful.
