Hi Bert,

Thanks for the file. I have fixed the bugs I discussedin my message. The 
memory bug was fixed by adding int positionsArray[2 * BUFSIZE] to 
userData. This area is also available for other uses when not needed for 
indexing.

You mention tests. Could they be added to the tests subdirectory? I 
already have a couple of programs there.
