Yeah think of the odds! My Kmail checks for new mail every 30 mins and we 
managed to reply inside an interval, anyway!

No. The svn diff includes a whole lot of additions and modifications than the 
tar.gz file (the one I sent on Saturday).

Yes, I will do that but hold on for two days, I will apply the changes you 
suggested in the personal mail and then provide a better version.

OK thats a reasonable thing. Let's wait for Stefan's opinion. May be we can 
use another radio and "logic" trick to show quantiles/probabilities?

Thanks, I will make the neccessary changes and send a new diff patch in a few 
days.
