Relax.

Just write to Eugene and get his okay to do whatever it is you want with
this calculator.  DTraq (www.mckae.com/dtraq.html) uses some other software
he wrote and he freely gave me his okay to use that.

As a Russian, he may not be fully aware of the copyright paranoia that the
DMCA, SCO, the RIAA, and that lot are trying to foist on the US.
