Hi Peter
Many thanks for your prompt answer. I have of course in the
meantime downloaded "books.bin" from the address given by you.
Nevertheless somewhat strange: even without the file books.bin
it worked after I had renamed the folder "Crafty_1913" to
"Crafty" (before downloading books.bin).
Kind regards
Kurt
