Oh no!  I realize it may be a bit tiring to be the only person who is
providing useful Eiffel tools via comp.lang.eiffel, and your request
for someone else to do likewise is understandable and worthwhile, but
could you _please_ not make your postings contingent on reciprocation
by other Eiffel net people?  I personally am working on a large thesis
project which combines Eiffel with a parallel utility here at Yale,
which is not something that can be posted (the utility has hundreds of
K of source code).  Otherwise, I would have done as you requested 
already.

You are _the_ main Eiffel resource on the net.  I, and others, appreciate
the stuff you've written.  Please keep it up!  And please post your stuff
for the benefit of others who are not as clueful and net-minded as 
yourself.

Thanks!
