Comment:

In any comment to the above - if any - please describe first what should be installed in gap to make this or the to-be-final code work. Please give a relevant example with relations that make the difference, so that the lack of specification can be covered by common sense. It does not help to give an example with one relation from a link with an unlabeled picture, that is copied as a second relation. If the really needed posets have only quadratic relations, then specify it! You know what you need, but the question is so general, so that a potential helper gets problems where there aren't any. Is the following poset relevant?
