Hi,
	Thanks to those who replied to my original post. I've grabbed Konheim's
book and it will not be a difficult task to write a program from the description
it contains. However, some information necessary for a reconstruction is
missing. What I need are the initial rotor substitutions for the three
rotors and the (fixed) substitution for the reflecting rotor. I've also
grabbed Rejewski's article from "Annals of Computing History" which contains
a preliminary version of the code used for ENIGMA_2. I have not copied the
code but suspect that it contains the stuff I need. Any help would be much
appreciated.

Glenn
