This document contains my detailed calculation of the 
Generalised Few-cycle Envelope Approximation (GFEA) 
propagation equation reported and used in Phys. Rev. A 
(submitted) and its associated longer version at 
arXiv.org/physics/0212016. This GFEA propagation 
equation is intended to be applicable to optical pulses 
only a few cycles long, a regime where the standard 
Slowly Varying Envelope Approximation (SVEA) fails.
