Oh, I'll join in now and then with my Pretz's results, just not Chest's. I think it's nicer if Heiner does that, don't you agree? And I think your expectations of me are a bit high! :) >I read the description of how to make Heiner solver but, at the end, I thought >that he explained how to make working Chest on UNIX. Do you use Chest on Windows >base, or not? Yes, Windows 98 on one machine, Windows XP on the other. Heiner showed how he does things on Unix, but they can be translated to Windows I think. But for now I do it a bit simpler. >>>Your program give all the time great result. We are almost identical.

Well, you have a family to support, I don't, so that makes a big difference. But you get a lot back from them for your support I hope ... :) >Cheers, >Leonid. Groetjes, Paul
