The program FACTOR.EXE of Shamus Software can be downloaded
free from: http://primes.utm.edu.links/programs/large_arithmetic/

It factorizes or show the primality of a number up to 80 digits.
The problem is how to attach it to our program or manipulate it
in such a manner that can be able to process a sequence of
integers between a given interval.
If someone can do that, please explain us the procedure.
