    David -

    First, many thanks for making FEMM aqvailable. The accessibility
    invites one to explore all sorts of things!

    Second, my requests:

    1) A "turns" parameter for coils, perhaps with a fill %. Making this
    part of the file would make automation of total current and
    inductance easier, instead of hard-coding the value into the Lua
    script. Besides, ANSYS has this, I think... ;)

    2) An "extents" function that would report the maximum and minimum X
    & Y- values for the selected entities. My immediate need is to
    select the block label in a certain group, though selectgroup() plus
    editmode() seems to get there. If available, I would use extents()
    to bound moving parts around (like a conductor).

    And finally, our backgrounds are spookily similar - I was at
    Virginia 1983-1987 and at Duke 1987-1994! Ever hear of the (SAE)
    band "Beak & the Freaks" at Duke? How about the Hoof'n'Horn
    show "Baby"? Miss the barbecue? Nuthin' like it here in Seattle...

    Thanks,
    David
