Hi all, hi Ken,
wow, that's cool! Thank you (and also Stephan) for sharing this achievement!
I am unfortunatelly again stuck in unrelated work, but it feels good that there
is still some life here, ha! ^_^
I will add a link to this email conversation thread in the archive on the
Gcmd-Webpage, hopefully it will help other users, too.
Best
Uwe
