In the testing I did, it was prone to not doing a full run.
Also having to use a 2-3 step process was a pain.

Have you compiled it on a 64bit system? That will come along and bite you even

Yes, spoon was a pain in the backside. Having the source code was fine and
good, but it was missing

skill level).
