This is what I have. H6 is the default engine in my F5 installation and the icon
is called H6-W. :) As book I use the General that came with F532, but separate
from F532 itself, so each program learns its own stuff. Don't bother assigning
more than the maximum of 8MB hashtables that H6 for Fritz can use.
