Paul, just looking through results of the last few rounds, I see that
others also using AutoDealer include Scott Crom, Toni Savage, and Mike
Shefler; those using Coryphaeus include John Barrs, Hugo Kornelis, Tim
Lodge, and Guerri Stevens; using a program, but one that doesn't seem to be
either of those, are Tony Abell, Bob Stone, and Dan Widdis.

I have it on a floppy (it's that small). ;-)

Wayne Scott also uses AutoDealer on those rare occasions when he deals.

Dodi, I am using Dixomatic, not Coryphaeus. Johnny Barrs and Tim Bourne
also said they use Dixomatic. I think that Judy uses Coryphaeus, and I
assume that Paul uses it.

I use a set of Perl scripts I cooked up for the purpose. It's not that the other
programs were inadequate in any way, just that I was keen to write my own
solution. As far as I know, I am the only one using the scripts. They're
command-line only and not for the squeamish, though maybe just the ticket for a
Linux user (which reminds me that I should update the file on the Coryphaeus
Yahoo site; it's badly out of date).
