O.K. I'll send the zip file to ICD. Also Carsten K. made a good
suggestion
in posting them in groups of 50. This would allow discussion on this
site
as to further refine the suite. I'll post the first 50 for now and if
the
consensus for this is positive then I'll continue with the next groups
of
50. I'll keep a record of the discussions on this thread in order to
edit the ECM98 file. The programmers involved in this project were
Amir,Bruce,Bob,Ernst and Don but now that the first draft is done
others most likely will come on board. As they discover positions for
deletion (too easy, key move not decisive, ...) I'll modify the master
file.
