  14. Hi,
  15.     Thanks to those who replied to my original post. I've grabbed Konheim's
  16. book and it will not be a difficult task to write a program from the description
  17. it contains. However, some information necessary for a reconstruction is
  18. missing. What I need are the initial rotor substitutions for the three
  19. rotors and the (fixed) substitution for the reflecting rotor. I've also
  20. grabbed Rejewski's article from "Annals of Computing History" which contains
  21. a preliminary version of the code used for ENIGMA_2. I have not copied the
  22. code but suspect that it contains the stuff I need. Any help would be much
  23. appreciated.
  24.
