//  last revision       :  july 08-2003 - still not happy - new code starting from the scratch with 771 bytes;
//                                      - further revisions ? we will se;
//  fifth revision      :  june 17-2003 - there was still a tiny bit of tuning to do according to size
//                                        and performance of the code  -  no further revision planned;
//                                      - the pure js-code comes with 1.260 bytes;
