I'm still having that "[]" problem in the history.dat. I used the QMC2's history.dat and it decreased the amount of "[]", but didn't get rid of them completely.
Is the proper title of your MESS program called "MEWUI MESS" or "MEWUI for MESS"? I like to have my programs named correctly. I've seen it titled both ways from various sources, so I just wanted to know what the author says is the official title.
