Hello Stephen, ncdismember uses the cfchecker code developed by Michael Decker and Martin Schultz and distributed at https://bitbucket.org/mde_/cfchecker ncdismember makes no changes to that code. Is that the same as yours?
The ncdismember script is at http://nco.sf.net/nco.html#ncdismember The part involving CFChecker is very straightforward. We would welcome any changes that improve the user experience. Are there multiple codes named "CFChecker"? We'd be happy to accept a patch that allows ncdismember to use more than one "CFChecker", or to exploit other options of the checker. AFAICT we currently use all the options except the one that allows explicit specifications of which tests to perform.
