Dear FET users,

First of all, there are difficult times. I wish you good health!

I have put available a new snapshot. I hope the release of the official FET will be in about 1 week from now.

From the ChangeLog:

   - Changed the random number generator to a better one, MRG32k3a, by Pierre L'Ecuyer (used with permission). This has a longer period but, unfortunately, on some older/not so powerful computers/platforms (especially the 32-bit ones), this new random number generator might run (much) slower. But the generation time should be generally nearly the same or comparable, since the random numbers generation routine seems to take only about 3% of the generation time.
   - Bug fix for the future Qt versions: Qt reverted from the QComboBox signal currentIndexChanged(int, const QString &) to the signal currentIndexChanged(int).
   - Code cleanup.

Please test with your file(s), it should solve in a comparable time, and report the results.
