Hi Peer,

Thank you for the good news, it give me courage in the middle of coding !

I'll try again with abnet, i really wish it to work, but i'm very very very busy
;) with some evalution function and search issue (discovered a terrible bug in
my search). And adding a new bug is so easy in this type of code :)

David.
