This document is a summary of info I have on hand about Science/School/UNIX
software.  It is designed to answer the questions I have seen most
frequently about such software on USENET.  It's a combination of things I
have found out myself (I use most of these programs), information posted on
USENET newsgroups (sometimes uncredited, sorry), and responses I got to
questions I send to commercial product representatives.  I have tried to
make the information herein as detailed and accurate as possible; please
email me with any corrections, additional information  or comments.

*Appendix A.   UNIX versions of archiving programs (lha, zoo, unzip).
*Appendix B.   Amiga archiving programs.
*Appendix C.   FTPmail
+Appendix D.   Fish Disk databases
*Appendix E.   Sources of programs

NOTE: some of these files/archives are very large.  Often they contain
source or other files you may not need.  If you are sending the files to
yourself over the phone lines, or other slow medium for which you may have
to pay, use the appropriate archiver on your UNIX system beforehand to
delete all unneeded files in the archive.  The most common archiving format
is .lzh and .lha, use the lha program for these.
See Appendix A for UNIX versions of archiving programs (lha, zoo, unzip, ...)
See Appendix B about Amiga archiving programs.

There is a nice review of science software in the March 1992 (#48) _.info_,
a magazine whose demise is much lamented.

There is a nice review of programming languages in August 1993 issue of
Amiga World, "A Command of Languages" by Dave Haynie.

This FAQ will use the notation sitename: instead of the full hostname.
They are;
	aminet:		Any of the AmiNet mirror sites.  See Appendix E.
	wustl:		wuarchive.wustl.edu ALIAS ftp.wustl.edu
	grind:		grind.isca.uiowa.du

	rwth-aachen:	ftp.informatik.rwth-aachen.de
	ux1:		ftp.cso.uiuc.edu ALIAS ux1.cso.uiuc.edu
	funet:		nic.funet.fi

The notation used in file naming shorthand follows:
	{xxx|yyy} means xxx or yyy I.E. pg.{src|bin} implies pg.src pg.bin
	{x..z}	  means x thru z I.E. pg.part{1..2} implays pg.part1 pg.part2

 3b.	Automatic filename/directory completion ===============================
	Various UNIX shells will complete a filename for you, so you just have
	to type the first letter or two and then hit a key and it will cycle

 8b.	PasTeX 1.3 ============================================================
	There is also a Freely Distributable TeX called PasTeX.
	Available - wustl: /systems/amiga/utilities/text/utils/pastex-1.3/
	Disk #1 has DVIprint (3c), ShowDVI and SpecialHost in its bin directory
	The files are full disks compressed with Zoom, from Fish 682

	MetaFont and the Previewer fonts are separate from this distribution.

 8c.	DVIprint ==============================================================
	If you have AmigaTeX but no printer drivers, you can try using DVIprint
	from the PasTeX distribution.  It works remarkably well, just make a
	tex:config dir and put DVIprint.printers in it.
	Available - athene: /pcsoft/amiga/tex/pastex/dviprint.lha

 8e.	Pictures and Graphics in Tex
 8e.1	fig
	Also for TeX you may want the "fig" package, for structured drawing.
	Available - uwstl: /systems/amiga/utilities/text/utils/fig.zom

 8e.2	For pictures will simple straight and angled lines, I recommend the
	EEPIC macros (LaTeX: epic.sty, eepic.sty).  In order to print documents
	with EEPIC macros and DVIprint (3c) you will need SpecialHost running;
	in order to preview with ShowDVI you will also need to run SpecialHost 
	in the background.

 8e.3	For more complicated pictures, especially with curves, the PiCTeX
	macros (LaTeX: piclatex.sty; TeX: prepictex.tex, pictex.tex,
	postpictex.tex) are better but very slow on a 68000.  SpecialHost is
	not required for these.
