Nuitari, 

Due to an (unrealized by me) backlog of emails pending approval
from unsubscribed folks this message didn't circulate till now, 
25 days after you sent it so I suspect the answer is not in time
for your purposes. 

Looking in the code it seems there is no non-dithered case.
I'm not quite sure why I didn't provide that.   

Sorry about that (and the delay).

Best regards,
