proth_sieve v0.37 *IMPORTANT*
I just put up a new proth_sieve v0.37. There was a bug in v0.36 that could cause it to miss factors (something like 1 in 400 factors). I'm very, very, very sorry about that. :( I used to sieve 257 ranges with known factors before every release and verify that all were found, but apparently this bug slipped through anyway. I'm now verifying 834 ranges prior to release to make such errors less likely. Note that the bug only exists in v0.36 and not in earlier versions, so hopefully _very_ few factors have been missed because of this.
*** Please upgrade your version immediately. *** As a small bonus, v0.37 is about 1% faster on my athlons.
There's also a new feature that Mystwalker requested in this one. Use the "-n <id>" argument to append <id> to the basename of all filenames. If <id> is 001 then SoBStatus.dat becomes SoBStatus001.dat, and so on. "-s <filename>" can still be used to override the sob.dat filename, and takes precedence over -n.
