    shelling peas is tricky ;-)

    thanks for this tip, I guess it will work with Textpattern too.

    Thanks for the distraction, Garri :-) You just knew I wouldn’t be able to resist finding out didn’t you? In the end, though, it was a mercifully brief distraction - Textpattern was installed and working on my MAMP set-up even quicker than WP. Very smooth.
