There is no doubt that the method posted by JE is easier and
faster to set up.  Using mktable.pl instantly created the 
processing table, and a cut and paste did the shell script.

But it's difficult to tell whether one or the other - BCLERK 
or ROLC - is faster.  Both are instantaneous.

So I executed:

  time rolc radley

and pressed x as soon after [Enter] as I could, then excuted:

  time bclerk radley

and pressed q as soon after [Enter] as I could.

I did this several times, and it appears bclerk is maybe a few
hundredths of a second faster.
