I took a quick pass at implementing the comparisons in a more suitable lanugage. Run time is now a few seconds on both platforms. About the same as compare_tests on my old ibook/OSX and much faster on FC3. Trials show the same results as before.
For anyone interested, the new version is attached. Jim. -- Jim Lemke [EMAIL PROTECTED] Orillia, Ontario
