hi Alex

thank you very much for your kind answer, the documentation is very 
interesting and this will sure help me setting up the model. It is very 
important for me to be able to simulate a GSHP since they are gaining a lot 
of interest here in Italy, and I'm working on the coupling of building  
simulation codes with genetic optimization algorithms.
About the lack of the prj interface I'm not in trouble, "v"i will be useful

thank you again

Marco
