Hi plugnburn! I didn't find another way to notify you, other than putting a comment here, I'm sorry. In http://831337.xyz/ there is a link for SAL-PRO, but it links back to the same page (broken link?). In Google's cache I found SAL-PRO, but that cache will expire one day. Would it be possible, please, to restore the link to SAL-PRO? This program has been very useful to me today! Thank you!
