I have now tried it from a smartphone and it works great, It does what I say (quote) above but actually much more and more interesting things are analyzed and outputted as well, including diagrams. Alas, some output is not available unless one pays for the enhanced version - I suppose that makes it shareware, as we said in the 90s - but it still does a lot in its current state. -- underground experts united https://dataswamp.org/~incal
