Hi Kev,

check this:

Yes, it will be a bit slower, but in a CLI environment, this shouldn't 
be an issue.

Good thing:
Since all pages are created "as if" someone did it manually, you will 
have all the fancy stuff like history and such.

And your code will be future proof.

Don't bother if you didn't find anything via searching the web, you 
would have needed process_cmdmap() as a keyword :)

cheers
Mathias
