Hi Melchior,

my answer to Geoff was *not* meant in a bad way. I even could not test
your solution until now :-). The only theoretical advantage of the
"gear-down/up" version could be a faster switching from high to low
speed, therefore I wrote that a "self-compiler" can choose the preferred
version himself. But I agree that a general solution is much better for
the long run and the different necessaries.

I am very lucky about the general improvement and have already fixed
this in my manual for the upcoming FGTools version 1.4 what I am writing
now. And that you did it so fast that it will be in version 0.9.10!!!

Beside that, I know you C++ coders can squeeze a whole program into one
line :-)

Thank you once again
Georg
