I haven't looked for an online pairing program since I have that already on my machine. And you are correct, unix pickings are thin. Years ago I had a C pairings generator I wrote, but that was early to middle 80's and it has long been lost... There is an online round-robin pairing generator. I had forgotten where as we don't play many of those, but a google search for "round robin pairing" popped up one in Europe that worked perfectly...
