Just run it. :)

0-8 means start in upper left corner and go down two and right one. Double check the code, The 0 is the skip from the start of string, and the 8 is the gap (in bytes) between the squares to be swapped.

This program runs in just under seven seconds on my machine, an AMD Athlon(tm) Dual Core Processor 5050e running at 2.8GHz.

    Congrats it's the best known solution, almost exactly the sequence given in the book. (found manually though)
