I finally waded through the Wyld article.  I have an updated version of the
G-sum and optimization available at:

        http://users.rcn.com/rflrs/Gee_Wyld.htm

I'm a bit unconfident, as yet in the optimization, especially since I had
to change the modified G-sum correction to exactly the opposite direction
than expressed in the Wyld article and it appears to be rather slow;  I
have allowed for only a single iteration at each operation, for now.

If one downloads it for local use, the associated Javascript file is also needed:

(Don't get me started on how a McGatesware editor can only handle 32 kb on
a 350 Mb machine!;-)

Many thanks to Bob for helping me get the HM interface to work better.

P.S.: Cute name, don't you think? (I couldn't resist.)
