Spin The Windmill

From a T-Boned setup as in
Heads Pass In, Sides Quarter Out

I wanted to say "Spin the Windmill"....
I would call "outsides as you are" or "ahead on the outside"

Couldn't do it... had to add the call. I feel very shakey doing that!

I usually say 'Spin The Windmill Forward' or 'Spin The Windmill As You Are'

If you wish to say 'Spin The Windmill Outsides As You Are', you must add a new record to the parse database. Ask if you need help. (I will save my response, and in a future upgrade of CSDS, the parse database will have updated).

You can also say 'Spin The Windmill (Outsides) As You Are' if you wish to see the word 'Outsides' within the sequence.

By the way, the program does have a few problems with Spin The Windmill, namely

all the Spin The Windmill variations aren't necessarily entered in the snapshot database (I should probably modify the program to 'expand' the call);

from a position such as Trade By, the call 'Left Spin The Windmill Right' might not behave as you expect. I forget whether or not the program assumes that 'Left' (interpreted as the 'Mirror' concept) also applies to the outsides. In any case, be careful if you apply the word 'Left' before Spin The Windmill.
