Description
We present an overview of the Monte Carlo event generator for lepton and quark pair production for the high-energy electron-positron annihilation process. We note that it is still the most sophisticated event generator for such processes. Its entire source code is rewritten in the modern C++ language. We checked that it reproduces all features of the older code in Fortran 77. We discuss a number of improvements both in the MC algorithm and in its various interfaces, such as those to parton showers and detector simulation.
