Hi Ed

Thanks for your comments. And thanks for this great free engine. :-)

Basically i just renamed Rebel12.exe to Engine.exe and renamed InBetween.exe to
Rebel12.exe. Then it's installed by pointing the gui to Rebel12.exe and
Inbetween.ini translates the commands. So far, it's working great.

Regards
Dave
