Good advice.  Do you happen to know of an ishi-no-shita problem that is
fully enclosed without looking artificial?  I think such problems show
off GoTools' power better.

The odd thing is, a while ago I heard that GoTools had become much
better at handling unenclosed positions.  I tested it on that one at 
http://www.britgo.org/links/brits.html#wolfth exactly as it is, and
found that it solved it in a second.

Thank you for the advice on links, which I have taken.

Nick
