Hi, indeed one of our former programs at FSU developed such an application
under gempak 4.5, and it worked great.  In the move to 5.0 some time ago,
which coincided with the move to Sun workstations, the program was never
backed up, and therefore was lost.  If it could be recovered from someone
else's archive, it would be great!  It never was "contrib"bed
unfortunately.  Paul
