The script runs whenever a trigger message comes in from
johnb-cgate.<instance>.
It looks at the contents of the message, and updates the globals
accordingly.

Not sure - I don't have the C-Bus PC interface connected to my server yet,
so I'm not running it all the time... hope to get thinks connected up
properly some time next week.

Yep, it's on the list - though it depends where the bottleneck is happening
- if it's C-Gate that's slow in sending the data out, then we need to look
at addressing that, and an exclude file probably won't help.
