Dirk,

when you are done, could you help me with #585? The problem seems to be the 
following:

in divelist.c there is the function init_decompression() which is supposed to 
go through the dive list and find dives that still influence tissue loadings of 
the current dive (in this case: in the planner). The rule is that we assume 
that after 48h all tissues are back to their surface values. So from the 
current dive we go back in time to find a surface interval of at least 48 
hours. After that interval we take all the tissue loadings into account. There 
seem to be two problems:

1) A minor one: the “going back in time” is done as a loop with 

        while (i && —i)

where i is the index in the dive list. Here, it seems to me i==0 is a perfectly 
fine value, it is the first entry in the dive list. So the condition should 
rather be

        while (i >= 0 && --i >= 0)

Could somebody please confirm/refute this?

2) In the planner (this is why I write this), there seems to be a bogus dive in 
the dive list present which seems to be related to the dive that is currently 
planned and which for me is exactly one hour before the default date of the 
planner (i.e. now). That dive is then counted as influencing the deco of the 
planned one which is of course wrong. It seems to me this is one of the 
“staging dive” or “current dive”. As I know you are looking into this, I will 
not try to mess with trying to get rid of this dive or ignore it for pre 
saturation of tissues. May I just draw your attention to this problem and ask 
you to tell me when your open heart surgery has stabilized enough for me to 
further investigate this point?

Thanks
Robert
