RE: fasthenry and the coilgen preprocessor/Windows version



Original poster: "by way of Terry Fritz <twftesla-at-qwest-dot-net>" <rob-at-pythonemproject-dot-com>

I forgot to add that the Windows version of the Fasthenry program plus
other goodies is available at http://www.fastfieldsolvers-dot-com

You have to enter some personal info, then you can download all of the
programs.  Unfortunately, there is no preprocessor.  I will see if I can
compile the Coilgen program for Windows and put it on my website.   Rob.
