Hi Jim,

Sorry for the late response . . . I decided that your request for a  
simple pendulum simulation presented a good exercise for me, and so  
have been working on it.
I have (at this time) a "Simple" simulation of a Simple Pendulum.  it  
uses the small angle displacement solution, and it does not yet use  
the Runga-Kutta method.  Let me say, I don't know anything about  
schema-transfer, and I don't know what the "fan" is.  But, such as it  
is, you can have what I've done, and build on it as you see fit.  Let  
me know.  Meanwhile, I'll probably be playing with improvements etc.

Cheers, Roger
