I'm working on a commercial version of my decompression simulation package, 'divecomp', that many of you may be familiar with as a piece of freeware that runs with the crude "curses" library on UNIX systems. The final release will be for MS Windows 3.1, and Macintosh System 7.X, with all the capabilities in the freeware version plus arbitrary handling of mixed gas, including the ability to change mixes in the middle of a simulated dive. I plan to offer this commercial version for under $50; If anyone out there can describe in detail to me the format of the information dumped by the Nemesis, I'll include the capability to read in this data format in the released product. I don't expect to be releasing this until about March 94. Dave Waller YMCA Instructor dave@hp*.cu*.hp*.co* "This ain't your father's YMCA :-)" (408) 447-4413 Hewlett-Packard Co.
