Just a reconfirm that I.D. Brown and U.D. Altermatt's Getspec
has been available on the CCP14 Website since the 9th of
September in the form of Fortran Source Code.

Thus no need to hassle the original authors, you can get it
straight off the web.
(my original premature misposting to the list has supposedly
raised extra queries the authors way)
---Rehash of the software is:"This program calculates the symmetry operators (general positions) and special positions for any setting of any space group based on the Hall space group symbol which is setting specific (S.R.Hall (1981) Acta Cryst, A37, 517-525). The input may also be given as a Hermann-Mauguin symbol in the setting-specific form used by the Inorganic Crystal Structure Database."
