Don,
I have to thank you: I use A-Get for years and read Williams books,
but it never came to my mind that it was indeed so easy to plot the
Gator 3-lines on Get. I will do immediately !!
On the other hand, I am desperately trying to build a complete
Williams 5-dimensions system in Easy Language. I think I have now the
7 signals OK, with excellent theoretical results, but the problem
lies in putting them together in one system: then the % are dropping
dramatically...
If some EL experts could help, I would be happy to forward him with
my separated "chaos" signals to see what he could do.
