Well... unfortunatly though it might be called "open source" the source code of 
LK8000 version 1.23b is not available anywhere... The latest source code on the 
LK8000 page is of 1.22b and since the LK8000 project doesn't use any source 
code control system at all it is not possible to download it from anywhere else.

If you have the source code feel free to send it to us, but without the code it 
is kinda hard to look at the code ;)

Have you taken a look at the WELT2000 database?! Might be what you are looking 
for...
