Hi, somehow my earlier reply to this never made it to the list and not even to my sent box so I guess I screwed up somehow. See below.

So I was responsible for changing it but some of the changes you mentioned above was done at least a couple of weeks ago so perhaps your version that you were working on was somehow old? Anyway, it’s fixed now. > I know it's annoying for experienced programmers, but I'd beg to document > properly changes of this kind, that change the functionality of the basic > reconstruction program.

Things should be documented but this particular steering file is a developer tool for me and you so it’s hard to document things all the time and as we talk in our private mail chain things should be clear. Certainly all tube “official” reconstruction drivers are working afaik.
