Les,

Unfortunately, there are lot of reasons why I don't want to do that:
(1) I don't want to write new code for the generator. I am completely out of
time.
(2) To generate those TBs I need computer -- and that computer can better do
something more useful.
(3) I spend some my time when TBs are generating -- bookkeeping, verification,
etc.

Thanks,
Eugene
