Here's a suggestion: De-rotation of notation.

Example input: R y R y R y R
Example output: R B L F

That can be done with the new 'manipulate' feature ;)
No it can't. That's slow.

How many rotations do you normally need to remove?? I could do this as an additional feature, but I'm not sure if its worth the development time at the moment. I'll put it on the TODO list..

I think it would also be a nice feature if you can add a cube rotation somewhere in the middle (or.. at any place in the alg), and changing the moves after that automatically. Same thing for changing R into r, and changing the rest of the moves automatically.

Again, great idea ... so I decided to implement it :) This one wasn't quite so trivial to do though, so the code has almost doubled in size, but it should now work. I've tested it a bit, but if anyone finds any problems with it please let me know, thanks.

I can imagine it was quite annoying to program, yes. But thanks for taking the time!
