Hi! Thank you Alexander for introduction!

No such documentation exists... :-( But I'm currently preparing some sheets... ;-) > or give some > overview in a reply to this email. Just wait some time... I'll try to get the documentation ready for distribution next week. > Alex > > [1] http://www.faumachine.org Volkmar -- Dr.-Ing.
