Yes, you could be right, it was a bit of a 'think aloud' mail.

I think my main problem is that I have a (slightly) old-fashioned
programmers view of things (I'm an assembler/C/C++/Java programmer)
which expects things to be in compartments.  HTML and CSS and things
like that don't fit into my ordered view of the world too well.

What I have ended up doing is quite like what you suggested.  I have
now separated 'source' and 'destination' and in the source directory I
have the r2w.ini file and the template file.  Thus to build one
particular hierarchy I go to the top of that hierarchy and run r2w.py.

I don't quite know why I didn't see this way of doing things earlier!
