[developers] Chart pruning: update

[Stephan Oepen]

hei,

the ‘ncheap’ binary (invoked as ‘cheap -n’) in the LOGON tree  
is now updated; if the maintainers of grammars in the LOGON tree email  
me their preferred cpu definition for chart pruning, i can include  
these in the global ‘dot.tsdbrc’.

cheers, oe
