[...] I will not be able to give you a detailed introduction to the code (for time reasons, and because there are only a few areas that I know particularly well). That said, could you please tell me how far you got with my previous pointers, what caused you difficulty in the information I have given you so far, what you have looked at up to now and where you are currently stuck?
