Unfortunately it seems to me that I would need to build it: it is not part of "standard" (Windows) Emacs installation :-( Moreover, it seems that its development is stopped a few years ago :-( However I may try it... Do you know any alternative application? The most interesting things in that for me were: 1) it is part of Emacs (now I see: not exactly); 2) arbitrary precision; 3) programmability (through elisp?). Thanks again, P
