Hello Peter,

I have been experimenting with creating my own
decompression planning simulator.  I beleive my tool
is 
now ready for BETA testing.  This program uses a
straight Buhlmann Algorithm and implmenents Eric C.
Baker's Gradient Factor method to generate deep
decompression stops.  It handles mix and all nitrox
blends.  Please give it a try it is freeware.  It is
available at:

P.S.  This is experimental software.  Using this
software to perform actual dives could cause death or
serious injury.  

Best Regards,
   Mat.
