Thanks again Andy, you answered my next questions. One final question. I see gearchange was rewritten but then the rewrite wasn’t put into the final release. I was studying the code revisions, which appear to solve some of my issues. Is this something that needs bug fixes and testing that just hasn’t happened yet?
