Free Software Redistributors Donate
***********************************

The SNOW 2.1 CD producers added the words "Includes $5 donation to the FSF"
to the front of their CD.  Potential buyers will know just how much of the
price is for the FSF & how much is for the redistributor.

The Sun Users Group Deutschland & ASCII Corporation (Japan) have added
donations to the FSF to the price of their next GNU software CD-ROMs.

Austin Code Works, a free software redistributor, supports free software
development by giving the FSF 20% of the selling price for the GNU software
CDs they produce & sell.

Walnut Creek CDROM & Info Magic, free software redistributors, are also
giving us part of their selling price.

TOHDO-SHA is donating 400 yen to the FSF for each copy of `The GNU Emacs Lisp
Reference Manual, Japanese Edition' sold at bookstores in Japan.

CQ Publishing made a large donation from the sales of their GAWK book in
Japanese.

In the long run, the success of free software depends on how much new free
software people develop.  Free software distribution offers an opportunity to
raise funds for such development in an ethical way.  These redistributors
have made use of the opportunity.  Many others let it go to waste.

You can help promote free software development by convincing for-a-fee
redistributors to contribute--either by doing development themselves or by
donating to development organizations (the FSF and others).

The way to convince distributors to contribute is to demand and expect this
of them.  This means choosing among distributors partly by how much they give
to free software development.  Then you can show distributors they must
compete to be the one who gives the most.

To make this work, you must insist on numbers that you can compare, such as,
"We will give ten dollars to the Foobar project for each disk sold." A vague
commitment, such as "A portion of the profits is donated," doesn't give you a
basis for comparison.  Even a precise fraction "of the profits from this
disk" is not very meaningful, since creative accounting and unrelated
business decisions can greatly alter what fraction of the sales price counts
as profit.

Also, press developers for firm information about what kind of development
they do or support.  Some kinds make much more long-term difference than
others.     For example, maintaining a separate version of a GNU program
contributes very little; maintaining a program on behalf of the GNU Project
contributes much.  Easy new ports contribute little, since someone else would
surely do them; difficult ports such as adding a new CPU to the GNU compiler
or Mach contribute more; major new features and programs contribute the most.

By establishing the idea that supporting further development is "the proper
thing to do" when distributing free software for a fee, we can assure a
steady flow of resources for making more free software.



Help from Free Software Companies
*********************************

When choosing a free software business, ask those you are considering how
much they do to assist free software development, e.g., by contributing money
to free software development or by writing free software improvements
themselves for general use.  By basing your decision partially on this
factor, you can help encourage those who profit from free software to
contribute to its growth.

Wingnut (SRA's special GNU support group) regularly donates a part of its
income to the FSF to support the development of new GNU programs.  Listing
them here is our way of thanking them.    Wingnut has made a pledge to donate
10% of their income to the FSF, and has purchased several Deluxe Distribution
packages in Japan.  Also see *Note Cygnus Matches Donations!::.

Major Changes in GNU Software and Documentation
***********************************************

   * A New FSF T-shirt!      (*Note FSF T-shirt::)

     We have a new T-shirt.  This design was inspired by the cover of the
     `GNU Emacs Lisp Reference Manual'.

   * GNU Emacs 19.30   (*Note GNU Software::)

     We have just released Emacs 19.30.     New features include support for menu
     bars on text-only terminals, a total rewrite of GNUS, multiple frames on
     Windows NT and Windows 95, & many others.

   * New Programs on the Tapes     (*Note GNU Software::)

     `gettext' is now on the *Note Languages Tape::.  Termutils & Midnight
     Commander have been added to the *Note Utilities Tape::.  CLX has been
     added to the *Note Lisps/Emacs Tape::.  Newer versions of many of our
     programs & manuals have been placed on all the media we distribute.

   * New Source Code CD!

     We have just released the December 1995 Source Code CD-ROMs (Edition 7).
     Due to increasing amounts of GNU Software, the Source Code CD is now a
     two disc set--the price remains unchanged!     The new programs included
     are: apache, CLX, Elisp archive, `ffcall', `gettext', GN, Gnans,
     `gnuserv', Hyperbole, Midnight Commander, Oaklisp, SIPP, SNePS, Spinner,
     W3, and `xgrabsc'.     *Note GNU Software::, for more information about
     these packages.  Also on the CD-ROMs are full distributions of MIT X11R6
     (both our Required & Optional distributions), MIT Scheme 7.3, Emacs
     19.30, GCC 2.7.1, and current versions of all other GNU Software.    For
     more information, see *Note December 1995 Source Code CD-ROMs::.

   * New Compiler Tools CD-ROM

     We have a new edition of the Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM with updated
     versions of much of its software.    It contains executables of the GNU
     compiler tools for some systems that don't normally come with a
     compiler.    This allows users of those systems to compile their own
     software without having to buy a proprietary compiler.

     We hope to include more systems with each update of this CD-ROM.  If you
     can help build binaries for new systems or have one to suggest, please
     contact us at either address on page 1.  For more information, see *Note
     Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM::.

   * New/Updated Manuals since Last Bulletin   (*Note Documentation::)

     We have a new manual: `The GNU Emacs Lisp Reference Manual, Japanese
     Edition' - the FSF would like to thank the team of over 30 Japanese who
     did the translation.  These new editions include bug fixes and
     additional information: `The GNU Emacs Lisp Reference Manual', `GNU
     Make', `Bison', `Programming in Emacs Lisp: An Introduction', and `The
     Termcap Manual'.

   * Older FSF CD-ROMs Available at a Reduced Price

     While supplies last, older versions of our CD-ROMs are available at a
     reduced price.  Note that the newest version has bug fixes and
     improvements that the older versions do not.  See the *note Free
     Software Foundation Order Form::..

   * GNU Software Works on MS-DOS   (Also *note GNU Software::.)

     GNU Emacs 19 and many other GNU programs have been ported to MS-DOS for
     i386/i486/Pentium machines.  We ship binaries & sources on the *Note
     DJGPP Diskettes::; *Note Emacs Diskettes::; *Note Selected Utilities
     Diskettes::; & the *Note Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM::.     We will ship
     binaries & sources on the *Note MS-DOS Book with CD-ROM::, when it is
     available.

   * The FSF Takes Credit Cards

     We take these credit cards: Carte Blanche, Diner's Club, MasterCard, JCB,
     Visa, and American Express.  Please note that we are charged about 5% of
     an order's total amount in credit card processing fees.  Please consider
     paying by check instead or adding on a 5% donation to make up the
     difference.



The Deluxe Distribution
***********************

The Free Software Foundation has been asked repeatedly to create a package
that provides executables for all of our software.  Normally we offer only
sources.  In addition to providing binaries with the source code, the Deluxe
Distribution includes a complete set of our printed manuals and reference
cards.

The FSF Deluxe Distribution contains the binaries and sources to hundreds of
different programs including GNU Emacs, the GNU C Compiler, the GNU Debugger,
the complete X Window System, and all the GNU utilities.

We will make a Deluxe Distribution for most machines/operating systems.     We
may be able to send someone to your office to do the compilation, if we can't
find a suitable machine close to us.  However, we can only compile the
programs that already support your chosen machine/system - porting is a
separate matter (to commission a port, consult the GNU Service Directory;
details in *Note Free Software Support::).  Compiling all these programs
takes time; a Deluxe Distribution for an unusual machine will take longer to
produce than one for a common machine.    Please contact the FSF Office with
any questions.

We supply the software in one of these tape formats in Unix `tar' format:
1600 or 6250bpi 1/2in reel, Sun DC300XLP 1/4in cartridge - QIC24, IBM RS/6000
1/4in c.t. - QIC 150, Exabyte 8mm c.t., or DAT 4mm c.t.     If your computer
cannot read any of these, please contact us to see if we can handle your
format.

The manuals included are one each of the `Bison', `Calc', `GAWK', `GNU C
Compiler', `GNU C Library', `GDB', `Flex', `GNU Emacs Lisp Reference',
`Programming in Emacs Lisp: An Introduction', `Make', `Texinfo', & `Termcap'
manuals; six copies of the `GNU Emacs' manual; and a packet of ten reference
cards each for Emacs, Bison, Calc, Flex, & GDB.

Every Deluxe Distribution also has a copy of the latest editions of our
CD-ROMs that have sources of our software & compiler tool binaries for some
systems.  The MS-DOS CD is in ISO 9660 format.    The other CDs are in ISO 9660
format with Rock Ridge extensions.

The price of the Deluxe Distribution is $5000 (shipping included).  These
sales provide enormous financial assistance to help the FSF develop more free
software.  To order, please fill out the "Deluxe Distribution" section on the
*note Free Software Foundation Order Form::.  and send it to:

GNU Documentation
*****************

GNU is dedicated to having quality, easy-to-use online & printed
documentation.    GNU manuals are intended to explain underlying concepts,
describe how to use all the features of each program, & give examples of
command use.  GNU manuals are distributed as Texinfo source files, which
yield both typeset hardcopy via the TeX document formatting system and online
hypertext display via the menu-driven Info system.  Source for these manuals
comes with our software; here are the manuals that we publish as printed
books.    See the *note Free Software Foundation Order Form::., to order them.

Most GNU manuals are bound as soft cover books with "lay-flat" bindings.
This allows you to open them so they lie flat on a table without creasing the
binding.  They have an inner cloth spine and an outer cardboard cover that
will not break or crease as an ordinary paperback will.     Currently, the
`GDB', `Emacs', `Emacs Lisp Reference', `Programming in Emacs Lisp: An
Introduction', `GAWK', `Make', `Bison', & `Texinfo' manuals have this
binding.  The other GNU manuals also lie flat when opened, using a GBC or
Wire-O binding.     All our manuals are 7in by 9.25in except the 8.5in by 11in
`Calc' manual.

The edition number of the manual and version number of the program listed
after each manual's name were current at the time this Bulletin was published.

`Debugging with GDB' (Edition 4.12 for Version 4.14) tells how to run your
program under GNU Debugger control, examine and alter data, modify a
program's flow of control, and use GDB through GNU Emacs.

The `GNU Emacs Manual' (11th Edition for Version 19.29) describes editing with
GNU Emacs.  It explains advanced features, including outline mode and regular
expression search; how to use special programming modes to write languages
like C++ and TeX; how to use the `tags' utility; how to compile and correct
code; how to make your own keybindings; and other elementary customizations.

`Programming in Emacs Lisp: An Introduction' (Edition 1.04) is for people who
are not necessarily interested in programming, but who do want to customize
or extend their computing environment.    If you read it in Emacs under Info
mode, you can run the sample programs directly.

`The GNU Emacs Lisp Reference Manual' (Edition 2.4 for Version 19.29) and
`The GNU Emacs Lisp Reference, Japanese Edition' (Japanese DRAFT Revision
1.0, from English Edition 2.4 for Version 19.29) covers this programming
language in depth, including data types, control structures, functions,
macros, syntax tables, searching/matching, modes, windows, keymaps, byte
compilation, and the operating system interface.

`The GAWK Manual' (Edition 0.16 for Version 2.16) tells how to use the GNU
implementation of `awk'.  It is written for those who have never used `awk'
and describes the features of this powerful string and record manipulation
language.

The `Make Manual' (Edition 0.49 for Version 3.74) describes GNU `make', a
program used to rebuild parts of other programs.  The manual tells how to
write "makefiles", which specify how a program is to be compiled and how its
files depend on each other.  Included are an introductory chapter for novice
users and a section about automatically generated dependencies.

The `Flex' manual (Edition 1.03 for Version 2.3.7) teaches you to write a
lexical scanner definition for the `flex' program to create a C++ or C-coded
scanner that recognizes the patterns defined.  You need no prior knowledge of
scanners.

The `Bison' manual (December 1993 Edition for Version 1.23) teaches you how
to write context-free grammars for the Bison program that convert into
C-coded parsers.  You need no prior knowledge of parser generators.

`Using and Porting GNU CC' (September 1994 Edition for Version 2.6) tells how
to run, install, and port the GNU C Compiler to new systems.  It lists new
features and incompatibilities of GCC, but people not familiar with C will
still need a good reference on the C programming language.  It also covers
G++.  We are doing limited copier runs of this manual until it becomes more
stable.

The `Texinfo' manual (Edition 2.21 for Version 3) explains the markup
language that produces our online Info documentation & typeset hardcopies.
It tells you how to make tables, lists, chapters, nodes, indexes, cross
references, & how to catch mistakes.  This second edition describes over 50
new commands.

`The Termcap Manual' (2nd Edition for Version 1.2), often described as "twice
as much as you ever wanted to know about termcap," details the format of the
termcap database, the definitions of terminal capabilities, and the process
of interrogating a terminal description.  This manual is primarily for
programmers.

The `C Library Reference Manual' (Edition 0.06 for Version 1.09) describes
the library's facilities, including both what Unix calls "library functions"
& "system calls."  We are doing small copier runs of this manual until it
becomes more stable.  Please send fixes to `[e-mail]'.

The `Emacs Calc Manual' (Edition 2.02 for Version 2.02) is both a tutorial
and a reference manual.     It tells how to do ordinary arithmetic, how to use
Calc for algebra, calculus, and other forms of mathematics, and how to extend
Calc.



GNU Software
************

All our software is available via FTP; see *Note How to Get GNU Software::.
We also offer software on various media and printed documentation:

   * *Note CD-ROMs::.

   * *Note Tapes::.

   * *Note MS-DOS Diskettes::.

   * *Note Documentation::, which includes manuals and reference cards.

In these articles describing the contents of each medium, the version number
listed after each program name was current when we published this Bulletin.
When you order a distribution tape, diskette, or newer CD-ROM, some of the
programs may be newer and therefore the version number higher.    See the *note
Free Software Foundation Order Form::., for ordering information.

Some of the contents of our tape and FTP distributions are compressed.    We
have software on our tapes and FTP sites to uncompress these files.  Due to
patent troubles with `compress', we use another compression program, `gzip'.
(Such prohibitions on software development are fought by the League for
Programming Freedom; *note What Is the LPF::., for details.)

GNU `make' is on several of our tapes because some system vendors supply no
`make' utility at all and some native `make' programs lack the `VPATH'
feature essential for using the GNU configure system to its full extent.  The
GNU `make' sources have a shell script to build `make' itself on such systems.

We welcome all bug reports and enhancements sent to the appropriate
electronic mailing list (*note Free Software Support::.).



Configuring GNU Software
------------------------

We are using, Autoconf, a uniform scheme for configuring GNU software
packages in order to compile them (see "Autoconf" below, in this article).
The goal is to have all GNU software support the same alternatives for naming
machine and system types.

Ultimately, it will be possible to configure and build the entire system all
at once, eliminating the need to configure each individual package separately.

You can also specify both the host and target system to build
cross-compilation tools.  Most GNU programs now use Autoconf-generated
configure scripts.

a reference card for that package.  To order them, see the *note Free
Software Foundation Order Form::..  *Note Documentation::, for more
information on the manuals.  Source code for each manual or reference card is
included with each package.

   * `acm'   (SrcCD, UtilT)

     `acm' is a LAN-oriented, multiplayer aerial combat simulation that runs
     under the X Window System.     Players engage in air to air combat against
     one another using heat seeking missiles and cannons.  We are working on
     a more accurate simulation of real airplane flight characteristics.

   * apache   (SrcCD)

     Apache is an HTTP server designed as a plug-in replacement for version
     1.3 or 1.4 of the NCSA server.  It fixes numerous bugs in the NCSA
     server and includes many frequently requested new features, and has an
     API which allows it to be extended to meet users' needs more easily.

   * Autoconf    (SrcCD, UtilT)

     Autoconf produces shell scripts which automatically configure source code
     packages.    These scripts adapt the packages to many kinds of Unix-like
     systems without manual user intervention.    Autoconf creates a script for
     a package from a template file which lists the operating system features
     which the package can use, in the form of `m4' macro calls.  Autoconf
     requires GNU `m4' to operate, but the resulting configure scripts it
     generates do not.

   * BASH   (SrcCD, UtilT)

     GNU's shell, BASH (Bourne Again SHell), is compatible with the Unix `sh'
     and offers many extensions found in `csh' and `ksh'.  BASH has job
     control, `csh'-style command history, command-line editing (with Emacs
     and `vi' modes built-in, and the ability to rebind keys) via the
     `readline' library.  BASH conforms to the POSIX 1003.2-1992 standard.

   * `bc'   (DosBC, SrcCD, UtilT)

     `bc' is an interactive algebraic language with arbitrary precision
     numbers.  GNU `bc' follows the POSIX 1003.2-1992 standard, with several
     extensions including multi-character variable names, an `else'
     statement, and full Boolean expressions.  The RPN calculator `dc' is now
     distributed as part of the same package, but GNU `bc' is not implemented
     as a `dc' preprocessor.

   * BFD   (BinCD, DjgpD, DosBC, LangT, SrcCD)

     The Binary File Descriptor library allows a program which operates on
     object files (e.g., `ld' or GDB) to support many different formats in a
     clean way.     BFD provides a portable interface, so that only BFD needs to
     know the details of a particular format.  One result is that all
     programs using BFD will support formats such as a.out, COFF, and ELF.
     BFD comes with Texinfo source for a manual (not yet published on paper).

     At present, BFD is not distributed separately; it is included with
     packages that use it.

   * Binutils    (BinCD, DjgpD, DosBC, LangT, SrcCD; `gas' only on VMSCmpT)

     Binutils includes these programs: `ar', `c++filt', `demangle', `gas',
     `gprof', `ld', `nlmconv', `nm', `objcopy', `objdump', `ranlib', `size',
     `strings', & `strip'.

     Binutils version 2 uses the BFD library.  The GNU assembler, `gas',
     supports the a29k, Alpha, H8/300, H8/500, HP-PA, i386, i960, m68k, m88k,
     MIPS, NS32K, SH, SPARC, Tahoe, Vax and Z8000 CPUs, and attempts to be
     compatible with many other assemblers for UNIX and embedded systems.  It
     can produce mixed C-and-assembly listings, and includes a macro facility
     similar to that in some other assemblers.    GNU's linker `ld' emits
     source-line numbered error messages for multiply-defined symbols and
     undefined references, and interprets a superset of AT&T's Linker Command
     Language, which gives control over where segments are placed in memory.
     `nlmconv' converts object files into Novell NetWare Loadable Modules.
     `objdump' can disassemble code for most of the CPUs listed above, and
     can display other data (e.g., symbols and relocations) from any file
     format read by BFD.

   * Bison   (BinCD,DjgpD,DosBC,LangT,SrcCD,VMSCmpT)[FSFman,FSFrc]

     Bison is an upwardly compatible replacement for the parser generator
     `yacc'.  Texinfo source for the `Bison Manual' and reference card are
     included.    *Note Documentation::.

     A recent policy change allows non-free programs to use Bison-generated
     parsers.  *Note Conditions for Using Bison::.

   * C Library     (BinCD, LangT, SrcCD) [FSFman]

     The GNU C library supports ANSI C-1989, POSIX 1003.1-1990 and most of the
     functions in POSIX 1003.2-1992.  It is upwardly compatible with 4.4BSD
     and includes many System V functions, plus GNU extensions.

     The C Library performs many functions of the Unix system calls in the
     GNU/Hurd.    Mike Haertel has written a fast `malloc' which wastes less
     memory than the old GNU version.  The GNU regular-expression functions
     (`regex' and `rx') now nearly conform to the POSIX 1003.2 standard.

     GNU `stdio' lets you define new kinds of streams, just by writing a few
     C functions.  The `fmemopen' function uses this to open a stream on a
     string, which can grow as necessary.  You can define your own `printf'
     formats to use a C function you have written.  For example, you can
     safely use format strings from user input to implement a `printf'-like
     function for another programming language.     Extended `getopt' functions
     are already used to parse options, including long options, in many GNU
     utilities.

     The C Library runs on Sun-3 (SunOS 4.1), Sun-4 (SunOS 4.1 or Solaris 2),
     HP 9000/300 (4.3BSD), SONY News 800 (NewsOS 3 or 4), MIPS DECstation
     (Ultrix 4), DEC Alpha (OSF/1), i386/i486/Pentium (System V, SVR4, BSD,
     SCO 3.2, & SCO ODT 2.0), Sequent Symmetry i386 (Dynix 3), & SGI (Irix
     4).  *Note Forthcoming GNUs::.  Texinfo source for the
     `GNU C Library Reference Manual' is included (*note Documentation::..

   * C++ Library   (BinCD, DjgpD, DosBC, LangT, SrcCD)

     The GNU C++ library (libg++) contains an extensive collection of C++
     "forest" classes, an IOStream library for input/output routines, and
     support tools for use with G++.  Supported classes include: Obstacks,
     multiple-precision Integers and Rationals, Complex numbers, arbitrary
     length Strings, BitSets, and BitStrings.

     The distribution also includes the libstdc++ library.  This implements
     library facilities defined by the forthcoming ANSI/ISO C++ standard,
     including a port of the Standard Template Library.

   * Calc   (DosBC, LspEmcT, SrcCD) [FSFman, FSFrc]

     Calc (written by Dave Gillespie in Emacs Lisp) is an extensible, advanced
     desk calculator & mathematical tool that runs as part of GNU Emacs.  You
     can use Calc just as a simple four-function calculator, but it has many
     more features including: choice of algebraic or RPN (stack-based) entry;
     logarithmic, trigonometric, & financial functions; arbitrary precision;
     complex numbers; vectors; matrices; dates; times; infinities; sets;
     algebraic simplification; differentiation & integration.  It outputs to
     `gnuplot', & comes with source for a manual & reference card (*note
     Documentation::.).

   * `cfengine'      (SrcCD, UtilT)

     `cfengine' is used for maintaining site-wide configuration of a
     heterogeneous Unix network using a simple high level language.  Its
     appearance is similar to `rdist', but also allows many more operations
     to be performed automatically.  See Mark Burgess, "A Site Configuration
     Engine", `Computing Systems', Vol. 8, No. 3 (ask `[e-mail]' how
     to get a copy).

   * Chess   (SrcCD, UtilT, WdwsD)

     GNU Chess enables most modern computers to play a full game of chess.  It
     supports a plain terminal interface, a curses interface, and a spiffy X
     Window interface via `xboard'.

     Improvements this past year include fixes to the game analyzer, book, &
     hash table; smartening up draw and mate; improved thinking on opponent's
     time; Autoconf installation; a makefile for Windows NT compilation;
     forward pruning; unlimited quiescence captures; improved evaluation;
     improved null & time control logic; & repetition-detection.

     GNU Chess was originated by Stuart Cracraft.  Improvements & rewrites are
     from John Stanback, Cha Kong Sian, Mike McGann, and many others.

     Send bugs to `[e-mail]' & general comments to
     `[e-mail]'.

   * CLISP   (LspEmcT, SrcCD)

     CLISP is a Common Lisp implementation by Bruno Haible and Michael Stoll.
     It mostly supports the Lisp described by `Common LISP: The Language (2nd
     edition)' and the ANSI Common Lisp standard.  CLISP includes an
     interpreter, a byte-compiler, a large subset of CLOS, a foreign language
     interface, and, for some machines, a screen editor.  The user interface
     language (English, German, French) is choosable at run time.  Major
     packages that run in CLISP include CLX & Garnet.  CLISP needs only 2 MB
     of memory & runs on many microcomputers (including MS-DOS systems, OS/2,
     Windows NT, Amiga 500-4000, Acorn RISC PC) & Unix-like systems
     (GNU/Linux, Sun4, SVR4, SGI, HP-UX, DEC Alpha, NeXTStep, & others).

   * Common Lisp   **Note Forthcoming GNUs::*    (LspEmcT, SrcCD)

     GNU Common Lisp (GCL, formerly known as Kyoto Common Lisp) is a compiler
     & interpreter for Common Lisp.  GCL is very portable & extremely
     efficient on a wide class of applications, & compares favorably in
     performance with commercial Lisps on several large theorem-prover &
     symbolic algebra systems.    GCL supports the CLtL1 specification but is
     moving towards the proposed ANSI standard.

     GCL compiles to C & then uses the native optimizing C compiler (e.g.,
     GCC).  A function with a fixed number of args & one value turns into a C
     function of the same number of args, returning one value--so GCL is
     maximally efficient on such calls.     Its conservative garbage collector
     gives great freedom to the C compiler to put Lisp values in registers.
     It has a source level Lisp debugger for interpreted code & displays
     source code in an Emacs window.  Its profiler (based on the C profiling
     tools) counts function calls & the time spent in each function.

     There is now a built-in interface to the Tk widget system.     It runs in a
     separate process, so users may monitor progress on Lisp computations or
     interact with running computations via a windowing interface.

     There is also an Xlib interface via C (xgcl-2).   CLX runs with GCL, as
     does PCL (see "PCL" later in this article).  *Note Forthcoming GNUs::,
     for plans regarding GCL or for recent developments.

     GCL version 2.2 is released under the GNU Library General Public License.

   * CLX   (LspEmcT, SrcCD)

     CLX is an X Window interface library for GCL.

   * `cpio'   (DosBC, SrcCD, UtilD, UtilT)

     `cpio' is an archive program with all the features of SVR4 `cpio',
     including support for the final POSIX 1003.1 `ustar' standard.  `mt', a
     program to position magnetic tapes, is included with `cpio'.

   * CVS   (SrcCD, UtilT)

     CVS, the Concurrent Version System, manages software revision & release
     control at a multi-developer, multi-directory, multi-group site.  It
     works best with RCS versions 4 and above, but will parse older RCS
     formats, losing some of CVS's fancier features.  (See Berliner, Brian,
     "CVS-II: Parallelizing Software Development," `Proceedings of the Winter
     1990 USENIX Association Conference'; ask `[e-mail]' how to get
     a copy.)

   * DejaGnu   (LangT, SrcCD)

     DejaGnu is a framework to test programs with a single front end for all
     tests.  The framework's flexibility & consistency makes it easy to write
     tests.

     DejaGnu comes with `expect', which runs scripts to conduct dialogs with
     programs.

   * Diffutils     (DjgpD, DosBC, SrcCD, UtilT)

     GNU `diff' compares files showing line-by-line changes in several
     flexible formats.    It is much faster than traditional Unix versions.  The
     Diffutils package contains `diff', `diff3', `sdiff', & `cmp'.  Recent
     improvements include more consistent handling of character sets and a
     new `diff' option to do all input/output in binary; this is useful on
     some non-POSIX hosts.  Plans for the Diffutils package include support
     for internationalization (e.g., error messages in Chinese) and for some
     non-Unix PC environments.

   * DJGPP   (BinCD, DjgpD, DosBC)

     DJ Delorie has ported GCC/G++ (see "GCC" in this article) to i386s
     running MS-DOS.  DJGPP has a 32-bit i386 DOS extender with a symbolic
     debugger; development libraries; & ports of Bison, `flex', & Binutils.
     Full source code is provided.  It needs at least 5MB of hard disk space
     to install & 512K of RAM to use.  It supports SVGA (up to 1024x768), XMS
     & VDISK memory allocation, `himem.sys', VCPI (e.g., QEMM, DESQview, &
     386MAX), & DPMI (e.g., Windows 3.x, OS/2, QEMM, & QDPMI).

     The FSF offers it on the *Note Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM::, and on
     the *Note DJGPP Diskettes::.  FTP from `oak.oakland.edu' in
     `/simtel/vendors/djgpp/' (or another SimTel mirror site).

     To join a DJGPP users mailing list, ask
     `[e-mail]'.

   * `dld'   (LangT, SrcCD)

     `dld' is a dynamic linker written by W. Wilson Ho.     Linking your program
     with the `dld' library allows you to dynamically load object files into
     the running binary.  Currently supported are VAX (Ultrix), Sun 3 (SunOS
     3.4 & 4.0), SPARC (SunOS 4.0), Sequent Symmetry (Dynix), & Atari ST.

   * `doschk'    (DosBC, SrcCD, UtilT)

     This program is a utility to help software developers ensure that their
     source file names are distinguishable on System V platforms with
     14-character filenames and on MS-DOS systems with 8+3 character
     filenames.

   * `ecc'   (LangT, SrcCD)

     `ecc' is a Reed-Solomon error correction checking program, which can
     correct three byte errors in a block of 255 bytes and detect more severe
     errors.  Contact `[e-mail]' for more information.

   * `ed'   (SrcCD, UtilT)

     `ed' is the standard text editor.    It is line-oriented and can be used
     interactively or in scripts.

   * Elib   (DosBC, LspEmcT, SrcCD)

     Elib is a small library of Emacs Lisp functions, including routines for
     using AVL trees and doubly-linked lists.

   * Elisp archive   (SrcCD)

     This is a snapshot of Ohio State's GNU Emacs Lisp FTP Archive.  FTP it
     from `archive.cis.ohio-state.edu' in `/pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-archive'.

   * Emacs   **Note Forthcoming GNUs:: for future plans.*

     In 1975, Richard Stallman developed the first Emacs, an extensible,
     customizable real-time display editor & computing environment.  GNU Emacs
     is his second implementation.  It offers true Lisp--smoothly integrated
     into the editor--for writing extensions & provides an interface to the X
     Window System.  It runs on Unix, MS-DOS, & Windows NT.  In addition to
     its powerful native command set, Emacs has extensions which emulate the
     editors vi & EDT (Digital's VMS editor).  Emacs has many other features
     which make it a full computing support environment.  Source for the `GNU
     Emacs Manual' & a reference card comes with the software.    Sources for
     the `GNU Emacs Lisp Reference Manual' & `Programming in Emacs Lisp: An
     Introduction' are distributed in separate packages.  *Note
     Documentation::.

   * Emacs 18    (LspEmcT, SrcCD, VMSEmcsT) [FSFrc]

     Emacs 18.59 is the last release of version 18 from the FSF.  We no longer
     maintain it.  It supports these Unix systems that Emacs 19 doesn't
     support (please help port Emacs 19 to these systems): Alliant FX/80,
     Altos 3068, Amdahl (UTS), AT&T (3Bs & 7300 PC), CCI 5/32 & 6/32,
     Celerity, Digital (VAX VMS), Dual, Encore (APC, DPC, & XPC), HLH Orion
     (original & 1/05), ISI (Optimum V, 80386), Masscomp, NCR Tower 32 (SVR2

     Stride (system rel. 2), Tahoe, Tandem Integrity S2, Tektronix 16000,
     Triton 88, Ustation E30 (SS5E), Whitechapel (MG1), & Wicat.

   * Emacs 19    (DosBC, EmcsD, LspEmcT, SrcCD) [FSFman(s), FSFrc]

     Emacs 19 works with character-only terminals & with the X Window System
     (with or without an X toolkit).  New features in Emacs 19 include:
     multiple X windows ("frames" to Emacs), with a separate X window for the
     minibuffer or a minibuffer attached to each X window; property lists
     associated with regions of text in a buffer; multiple fonts & colors
     defined by those properties; simplified/improved processing of function
     keys, mouse clicks, and mouse movement; X selection processing,
     including clipboard selections; hooks to be run if the point or mouse
     moves outside a certain range; menu bars and popup menus defined by
     keymaps; scrollbars; before- and after-change hooks; a source-level
     debugger for Emacs Lisp programs; floating point numbers; improved
     buffer allocation, including returning storage to the system when a
     buffer is killed; interfacing with the X resource manager; many updated
     libraries; integrated support for version control systems (RCS, CVS, &
     SCCS); Autoconf based configuration; and support for European character
     sets.

     Recent features include the ability to open frames on more than one X
     display from a single Emacs job, operation on MS-DOS, MS Windows, and
     Windows NT, displaying multiple views of an outline at the same time,
     support for the Athena & Motif widgets, version control support for CVS
     and for multiple branches, text properties for formatting text, commands
     to edit text properties and save them in files, and GNU-standard
     long-named command line options.

     Emacs 19.30 works on: Acorn RISC (RISCiX); Alliant FX/2800 (BSD); Alpha
     (OSF/1); Apollo (DomainOS); Bull DPX/2 2nn & 3nn (SysV.3) & sps7
     (SysV.2); Clipper; Convex (BSD); Cubix QBx (SysV); Data General Aviion

     Other configurations supported by Emacs 18 should work with few changes
     in Emacs 19; as users tell us more about their experiences with different
     systems, we will augment the list.     Also see *Note Forthcoming GNUs::.

   * `es'   (SrcCD, UtilT)

     `es' is an extensible shell (based on `rc') with first class functions,
     lexical scope, exceptions and rich return values (i.e., functions can
     return values other than just numbers).  `es''s extensibility comes from
     the ability to modify and extend the shell's built-in services, such as
     path searching and redirection.  Like `rc', it is great for both
     interactive use and scripting, particularly since its quoting rules are
     much less baroque than the C and Bourne shells.

   * `f2c'   (LangT, SrcCD)

     `f2c' converts Fortran-77 source into C or C++, which can be compiled
     with GCC or G++.  Get bug fixes by FTP from site `netlib.att.com' or by
     email from `[e-mail]'.  See the file
     `/netlib/f2c/readme.Z' for a summary.  Also see the GNU Fortran item
     later in this article, and in *Note Forthcoming GNUs::.

   * `ffcall'    (SrcCD)

     `ffcall' is a C library for implementing foreign function calls in
     embedded interpreters by Bill Triggs and Bruno Haible.  It allows C
     functions with arbitrary argument lists and return types to be called or
     emulated (callbacks).

   * Fileutils     (DosBC, SrcCD, UtilT)

     The Fileutils work on files: `chgrp', `chmod', `chown', `cp', `dd', `df',
     `dir', `du', `install', `ln', `ls', `mkdir', `mkfifo', `mknod', `mv',
     `rm', `rmdir', `sync', `touch', & `vdir'.

   * Findutils     (DosBC, SrcCD, UtilT)

     `find' is frequently used both interactively and in shell scripts to
     find files which match certain criteria and perform arbitrary operations
     on them.  Also included are `locate', which scans a database for file
     names that match a pattern, and `xargs', which applies a command to a
     list of files.

   * Finger   (SrcCD, UtilT)

     GNU Finger has more features than other finger programs.  For sites with
     many hosts, a single host may be designated as the finger "server" host
     and other hosts at that site configured as finger "clients".  The server
     host collects information about who is logged in on the clients.  To
     finger a user at a GNU Finger site, a query to any of its client hosts
     gets useful information.  GNU Finger supports many customization
     features, including user output filters and site programmable output for
     special target names.

   * `flex'   (BinCD, DjgpD, DosBC, LangT, SrcCD, UtilD) [FSFman, FSFrc]

     `flex' is a replacement for the `lex' scanner generator.  `flex' was
     written by Vern Paxson of the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory and generates
     far more efficient scanners than `lex' does.  Sources for the `Flex
     Manual' and reference card are included (*note Documentation::.).

   * Fortran (`g77')   **Note Forthcoming GNUs::*   (LangT, SrcCD)

     GNU Fortran (`g77'), developed by Craig Burley, is available for public
     beta testing on the Internet.  For now, `g77' produces code that is
     mostly object-compatible with `f2c' & uses the same run-time library
     (`libf2c').

   * Fontutils     (SrcCD, UtilT)

     The Fontutils convert between font formats, create fonts for use with
     Ghostscript or TeX (starting with a scanned type image & converting the
     bitmaps to outlines), et al.  It includes: `bpltobzr', `bzrto',
     `charspace', `fontconvert', `gsrenderfont', `imageto', `imgrotate',
     `limn', & `xbfe'.

   * GAWK   (DosBC, LangT, SrcCD) [FSFman]

     GAWK is upwardly compatible with the latest POSIX specification of
     `awk'.  It also provides several useful extensions not found in other
     `awk' implementations.  Texinfo source for the `GAWK Manual' comes with
     the software  (*note Documentation::.).

   * GCC   (BinCD, DjgpD, DosBC, LangT, SrcCD, VMSCmpT) [FSFman]

     Version 2 of the GNU C Compiler supports the languages C, C++, and
     Objective-C; the source file name suffix or a compiler option selects
     the language.  Objective-C support was donated by NeXT.  The runtime
     support needed to run Objective-C programs is now distributed with GCC
     (this does not include any Objective-C classes aside from `object', but
     see "GNUStep" in *Note Forthcoming GNUs::).  As much as possible, G++ is
     kept compatible with the evolving draft ANSI standard, but not with
     `cfront' (AT&T's compiler), which has been diverging from ANSI.

     The GNU C Compiler is a fairly portable optimizing compiler which
     performs automatic register allocation, common sub-expression
     elimination, invariant code motion from loops, induction variable
     optimizations, constant propagation and copy propagation, delayed
     popping of function call arguments, tail recursion elimination,
     integration of inline functions and frame pointer elimination,
     instruction scheduling, loop unrolling, filling of delay slots, leaf
     function optimization, optimized multiplication by constants, a certain
     amount of common subexpression elimination (CSE) between basic blocks
     (though not all of the supported machine descriptions provide for
     scheduling or delay slots), a feature for assigning attributes to
     instructions, and many local optimizations that are automatically
     deduced from the machine description.

     GCC can open-code most arithmetic on 64-bit values (type `long long
     int').  It supports extended floating point (type `long double') on the
     68k; other machines will follow.

     GCC supports full ANSI C, traditional C, & GNU C extensions (including:
     nested functions support, nonlocal gotos, & taking the address of a
     label).

     GCC can generate a.out, COFF, ELF, & OSF-Rose files when used with a
     suitable assembler.  It can produce debugging information in these
     formats: BSD stabs, COFF, ECOFF, ECOFF with stabs, & DWARF.

     GCC generates code for many CPUs, including the a29k, Alpha  ARM  AT&T
     DSP1610 Clipper Convex cN Elxsi Fujitsu Gmicro i370, i860, i960,
     MIL-STD-1750a, MIPS, ns32k, PDP-11, Pyramid, ROMP, RS/6000, SH, SPUR,
     Tahoe, VAX, & we32k.  Position-independent code is generated for the
     Clipper, Hitachi H8/300, HP-PA (1.0 & 1.1), i386/i486/Pentium, m68k,
     m88k, SPARC, & SPARClite.

     Operating systems supported include: GNU/Hurd, GNU/Linux, ACIS, AIX, AOS,
     BSD, Clix, Concentrix, Ctix, DG/UX, Dynix, FreeBSD, Genix, HP-UX, Irix,
     ISC, Luna, LynxOS, Minix, NetBSD, NewsOS, NeXTStep, OS/2, OSF, OSF-Rose,
     RISCOS, SCO, Solaris 2, SunOS 4, System/370, SysV, Ultrix, Unos, VMS, &
     Windows/NT.

     Using the configuration scheme for GCC, building a cross-compiler is as
     easy as building a native compiler.

     Version 1 of GCC, G++, & libg++ are no longer maintained.

     Texinfo source for the `Using and Porting GNU CC' manual, is included
     with GCC (*note Documentation::.).

     *Note Forthcoming GNUs::, for plans for later releases of GCC.

   * GDB   (BinCD, DjgpD, DosBC, LangT, SrcCD) [FSFman, FSFrc]

     GDB, the GNU DeBugger, is a source-level debugger for C, C++, & Fortran.

     GDB can debug both C and C++ programs, and will work with executables
     produced by many different compilers; however, C++ debugging will have
     some limitations if you do not use GCC.

     GDB has a command line user interface, and Emacs has a GDB mode.  Two X
     interfaces (not distributed or maintained by the FSF) are: `gdbtk' (FTP
     it from `ftp.cygnus.com' in directory `/pub/gdb'); and `xxgdb' (FTP it
     from `ftp.x.org' in directory `/contrib/utilities').

     Executable files and symbol tables are read via the BFD library, which
     allows a single copy of GDB to debug programs with multiple object file
     formats (e.g., a.out, COFF, ELF).    Other features include a rich command
     language, remote debugging over serial lines or TCP/IP, and watchpoints
     (breakpoints triggered when the value of an expression changes).

     GDB uses a standard remote interface to a simulator library which (so
     far) has simulators for the Hitachi H8/300, H8/500, Super-H, & Zilog
     Z8001/2.

     GDB can perform cross-debugging.  To say that GDB "targets" a platform
     means it can perform native or cross-debugging for it.  To say that GDB
     can "host" a given platform means that it can be built on it, but cannot
     necessarily debug native programs.

     GDB can:

    * "target" & "host": Amiga 3000 (Amix), DEC Alpha (OSF/1), DECstation
      3100 & 5000 (Ultrix), HP 9000/300 (BSD, HP-UX), HP 9000/700 (HP-UX

      Apple Macintosh (MacOS).

     Sources for the manual, `Debugging with GDB', and a reference card are
     included (*note Documentation::.).

   * `gdbm'   (LangT, SrcCD, UtilD)

     `gdbm' is the GNU replacement for the traditional `dbm' and `ndbm'
     libraries.     It implements a database using quick lookup by hashing.
     `gdbm' does not ordinarily make sparse files (unlike its Unix and BSD
     counterparts).

   * `gettext'     (LangT, SrcCD)

     The GNU `gettext' tool set contains everything maintainers need to
     internationalize a package for messages, tools that help translators
     localize messages to their native language, once a package has been
     internationalized.     *Note Help the GNU Translation Project::.

   * Ghostscript   (DosBC, SrcCD, UtilT)

     The GNU release of Ghostscript is an interpreter for the Postscript
     graphics language (*note Forthcoming GNUs::., for future plans).

     The current version of GNU Ghostscript is 2.6.2.  Features include the
     ability to use the fonts provided by the platform on which Ghostscript
     runs (X Window System & Microsoft (MS) Windows), resulting in much
     better-looking screen displays; improved text file printing (like
     `enscript'); a utility to extract the text from a Postscript language
     document; a much more reliable (and faster) MS Windows implementation;
     support for MS C/C++ 7.0; drivers for many new printers ( e.g. the
     SPARCprinter), & for TIFF/F (Fax) file format; many more Postscript Level
     2 facilities, including most of the color space facilities (but not
     patterns); & the ability to switch between Level 1 & Level 2
     dynamically.  Version 2.6.2 adds a LaserJet 4 driver & several important
     bug fixes to version 2.6.1.

     Ghostscript executes commands in the Postscript language by writing
     directly to a printer, drawing on an X window, or writing to files for
     printing later or manipulating with other graphics programs.

     Ghostscript includes a C-callable graphics library (for client programs
     that do not want to deal with the Postscript language).  It also supports
     i386/i486/Pentiums running MS-DOS with EGA, VGA or SuperVGA graphics (but
     please do *not* ask the FSF staff any questions about this; we do not
     use MS-DOS).

   * Ghostview     (DosBC, SrcCD, UtilT)

     Tim Theisen, `[e-mail]', created Ghostview, a previewer for
     multi-page files with an X Window interface.  Ghostview & Ghostscript
     work together; Ghostview creates a viewing window & Ghostscript draws in
     it.

   * GIT   (SrcCD, UtilT)

     GIT is a set of interactive tools: an extensible file system browser, an
     ASCII/hex file viewer, a process viewer/killer, & other related
     utilities & shell scripts.     It can be used to increase the speed &
     efficiency of many daily tasks, such as copying & moving files &
     directories, invoking editors, compressing/uncompressing files, creating
     & expanding archives, compiling programs, sending mail, etc.  It looks
     nice, has colors (if the standard ANSI color sequences are supported), &
     is user-friendly.

   * `gmp'    **Note Forthcoming GNUs::*   (LangT, SrcCD)

     GNU `mp' is a library for arbitrary precision arithmetic on signed
     integers and rational numbers.  It has a rich set of functions with a
     regular interface.

     Gnans is a program (and language) for the numerical study of
     deterministic and stochastic dynamical systems.  The dynamical systems
     may evolve in continuous or discrete time.     Gnans has graphical &
     command line interfaces.

   * GNATS   (SrcCD, UtilT)

     GNATS (GNats: A Tracking System, not to be confused with GNAT, The GNU
     Ada Translator) is a bug-tracking system.    It is based upon the paradigm
     of a central site or organization which receives problem reports and
     negotiates their resolution by electronic mail.  Although it has been
     used primarily as a software bug-tracking system so far, it is
     sufficiently generalized that it could be used for handling system
     administration issues, project management, or any number of other
     applications.

   * `gnuplot'     (SrcCD, UtilT, WdwsD)

     `gnuplot' is an interactive program for plotting mathematical
     expressions and data.  It plots both curves (2 dimensions) & surfaces (3
     dimensions).  Curiously, it was neither written nor named for the GNU
     Project; the name is a coincidence.  Various GNU programs use `gnuplot'.

   * `gnuserv'     (LspEmcT, SrcCD)

     `gnuserv' is a enhanced version of Emacs' `emacsclient' program.  It
     lets the user direct a running Emacs to edit files or evaluate arbitrary
     Emacs Lisp constructs from another process.

   * GnuGo   (SrcCD, UtilT)

     `gperf' generates perfect hash tables.  The C version is in package
     cperf.  The C++ version is in libg++.  Both produce hash functions in
     either C or C++.

   * Graphics    (SrcCD, UtilT)

     GNU Graphics produces x-y plots from ASCII or binary data.     It outputs
     in Postscript, Tektronix 4010 compatible, and Unix device-independent
     "plot" formats.  It has a previewer for the X Window System.  Features
     include a `spline' interpolation program; examples of shell scripts
     using `graph' and `plot'; a statistics toolkit; and output in TekniCAD
     TDA and ln03 file formats.     Email bugs or queries to Rich Murphey,
     `[e-mail]'.

   * grep   (DosBC, SrcCD, UtilT)

     Groff is a document formatting system based on a device-independent
     version of `troff' & includes: `eqn', `nroff', `pic', `refer', `tbl',
     `troff'; the `man', `ms', & `mm' macros; & drivers for Postscript, TeX
     `dvi' format, and typewriter-like devices.     Groff's `mm' macro package
     is almost compatible with the DWB `mm' macros with several extensions.
     Also included is a modified version of the Berkeley `me' macros and an
     enhanced version of the X11 `xditview' previewer.    A driver for the
     LaserJet 4 series of printers is currently in test.  Written in C++,
     these programs can be compiled with GNU C++ Version 2.5 or later.

     Groff users are encouraged to contribute enhancements.  Most needed are
     complete Texinfo documentation, a `grap' emulation (a `pic' preprocessor
     for typesetting graphs), a page-makeup postprocessor similar to `pm'
     (see `Computing Systems', Vol. 2, No. 2; ask `[e-mail]' how to
     get a copy), and an ASCII output class for `pic' to integrate `pic' with
     Texinfo.  Questions and bug reports from users who have read the
     documentation provided with Groff can be sent to
     `[e-mail]'.

   * `gzip'   (DjgpD, DosBC, LangT, LspEmcT, SrcCD, UtilT)

     `gzip' can expand LZW-compressed files but uses another, unpatented
     algorithm for compression which generally produces better results.     It
     also expands files compressed with System V's `pack' program.

   * `hello'   (DosBC, SrcCD, UtilT)

     The GNU `hello' program produces a familiar, friendly greeting.  It
     allows non-programmers to use a classic computer science tool which would
     otherwise be unavailable to them.    Because it is protected by the GNU
     General Public License, users are free to share and change it.  `hello'
     is also a good example of a program that meets the GNU coding standards.

     Like any truly useful program, `hello' contains a built-in mail reader.

   * `hp2xx'   (SrcCD, UtilT)

     GNU `hp2xx' reads HP-GL files, decomposes all drawing commands into
     elementary vectors, and converts them into a variety of vector and raster
     output formats.  It is also an HP-GL previewer.  Currently supported
     vector formats include encapsulated Postscript, Uniplex RGIP, Metafont,
     various special TeX-related formats, and simplified HP-GL (line drawing
     only) for imports.     Raster formats supported include IMG, PBM, PCX, &
     HP-PCL (including Deskjet & DJ5xxC support).  Previewers work under X11
     (Unix), OS/2 (PM & full screen), & MS-DOS (SVGA, VGA, & HGC).

   * HylaFAX   (SrcCD, UtilT)

     HylaFAX (once named FlexFAX) is a facsimile system for Unix systems.  It

     GNU `indent' formats C source code into the GNU indentation style.     It
     also has options to output BSD, K&R, or your own special style.  GNU
     `indent' is more robust & provides more functionality than other such
     programs, including handling C++ comments.     It runs on a number of
     systems, including DOS & VMS.

     The next version will also format C++ source code.

   * Ispell   (DosBC, SrcCD, UtilT)

     Ispell is an interactive spell checker that suggests "near misses" to
     replace unrecognized words.  System & user-maintained dictionaries for
     multiple languages can be used.  Standalone & Emacs interfaces are
     available.

     Previously, the FSF had its own version of Ispell ("Ispell 4.0"), but
     has dropped it for a parallel branch that has had more development
     ("Ispell 3.1").  (Ispell 3 was an earlier release by the original Ispell
     author, but others have since made it more sophisticated.)

   * JACAL   *Not available from the FSF except by FTP*

     JACAL is a symbolic mathematics system for the manipulation and
     simplification of algebraic equations and expressions.  New in JACAL is
     multivariate factoring from Michael Thomas `([e-mail])'.

     (both regular and compressed) or files on remote machines using the FTP
     protocol.

   * `mkisofs'     (SrcCD, UtilT)

     `mkisofs' is a pre-mastering program to generate an ISO 9660 file system.
     It takes a snapshot of a directory tree, and makes a binary image which
     corresponds to an ISO 9660 file system when written to a block device.

     It can also generate the System Use Sharing Protocol records of the Rock
     Ridge Interchange Protocol (used to further describe the files in an ISO
     9660 file system to a Unix host; it provides information such as longer
     filenames, uid/gid, permissions, and device nodes).

     Also included is `cdwrite', which can take an image from `mkisofs' and
     write it to a Phillips CD recorder system attached to a GNU/Linux system.

     using `nroff'.

     It does not yet handle input files that do not fit in memory all at once.

   * `rc'   (SrcCD, UtilT)

     `rc' is a shell that features a C-like syntax (much more so than `csh')
     and far cleaner quoting rules than the C or Bourne shells.     It's
     intended to be used interactively, but is also great for writing
     scripts.  It inspired the shell `es'.

   * RCS   (SrcCD, UtilD, UtilT)

     RCS, the Revision Control System, is used for version control &
     management of software projects.  Used with GNU `diff', RCS can handle
     binary files (executables, object files, 8-bit data, etc).     RCS now
     conforms to GNU configuration standards and to POSIX 1003.1b-1993.     Also
     see the CVS item above.

   * `recode'     **Note Forthcoming GNUs::*   (SrcCD, UtilT)

     GNU `recode' converts files between character sets and usages.  When
     exact transliterations are not possible, it may delete the offending
     characters or fall back on approximations.     This program recognizes or
     outputs nearly 150 different character sets and is able to transliterate
     files between almost any pair.  Most RFC 1345 character sets are
     supported.

   * `regex'   (LangT, SrcCD)

     The GNU regular expression library supports POSIX.2, except for
     internationalization features.  It is included in many GNU programs which
     do regular expression matching & is available separately.    An alternate
     regular expression package, `rx', is faster than `regex' in most cases &
     will replace `regex' over time.

   * `rx'   (LangT, SrcCD)

     Tom Lord has written `rx', a new regular expression library which is
     faster than the older GNU `regex' library.     It is now being distributed
     with `sed' and `tar'.  `rx' will be used in the next releases of `m4'
     and `ptx'.

   * SAOimage    (SrcCD, UtilT)

     SAOimage is an X-based astronomical image viewer.    It reads data images
     and displays them with a pseudocolor colormap.  There is full interactive

   * Scheme   *For more information, see *Note Scheme Tape::*    (SrcCD, SchmT)

   * `screen'    (SrcCD, UtilT)

     `screen' is a terminal multiplexer that runs several separate "screens"
     (ttys) on a single character-based terminal.  Each virtual terminal
     emulates a DEC VT100 plus several ISO 2022 and ISO 6429 (ECMA 48, ANSI
     X3.64) functions, including color.     Arbitrary keyboard input translation
     is also supported.     `screen' sessions can be detached and resumed later
     on a different terminal type.  Output in detached sessions is saved for
     later viewing.

   * `sed'   (DjgpD, DosBC, SrcCD, UtilD, UtilT)

     `sed' is a stream-oriented version of `ed'.  It comes with the `rx'
     library.

   * Sharutils     (SrcCD, UtilT)

     `shar' makes so-called shell archives out of many files, preparing them
     for transmission by electronic mail services; `unshar' helps unpack
     these shell archives after reception.  `uuencode' and `uudecode' are
     POSIX compliant implementations of a pair of programs to transform files
     into a format that can be safely transmitted across a 7-bit ASCII link.

   * Shellutils      (DosBC, SrcCD, UtilT)

     They are: `basename', `date', `dirname', `echo', `env', `expr', `false',
     `groups', `hostname', `id', `logname', `nice', `nohup', `pathchk',
     `printenv', `printf', `pwd', `sleep', `stty', `su', `tee', `test',
     `true', `tty', `uname', `users', `who', `whoami', & `yes'.

   * Shogi   (SrcCD, UtilT)

     Shogi is a Japanese game similar to Chess; a major difference is that
     captured pieces can be returned into play.

     GNU Shogi is a variant of GNU Chess; it implements the same features &
     similar heuristics.  As a new feature, sequences of partial board
     patterns can be introduced to help the program play toward specific
     opening patterns.    It has both character and X display interfaces.

     It is primarily supported by Matthias Mutz on behalf of the FSF.

   * SIPP    (SrcCD)

     SIPP is a library for creating photorealistic renderings of 3D scenes.
     A scene is built up of objects which can be transformed with rotation,
     translation, and scaling.    The objects form hierarchies where each object
     can have arbitrarily many subobjects and subsurfaces.  A surface is a
     number of connected polygons which are rendered with either Phong,
     Gouraud, or flat shading.    The library supports programmable shaders and
     texture mapping with textures in up to 3 dimensions and automatic
     interpolation of texture coordinates.  A scene can be illuminated by an
     arbitrary number of light sources.     The lights from some of them are
     capable of casting shadows of objects.

   * Smalltalk     *Also see *Note Forthcoming GNUs::*   (LangT,SrcCD)

     `Termcap Manual' in Texinfo format (*note Documentation::.).

   * Termutils     (SrcCD, UtilT)

     The Termutils package contains programs for controlling terminals.
     `tput' is a portable way for shell scripts to use special terminal
     capabilities.  `tabs' is a program to set hardware terminal tab settings.

   * TeX   (DosBC, SrcCD)

     TeX is a document formatting system that handles complicated
     typesetting, including mathematics.  It is GNU's standard text formatter.

     The University of Washington maintains & supports a tape distribution of
     TeX for Unix systems.  The core material is Karl Berry's `web2c' TeX
     package.  Sources are available via anonymous ftp; retrieval
     instructions are in `/pub/tex/unixtex.ftp' on `ftp.cs.umb.edu'.  If you
     receive any installation support from the University of Washington,
     consider sending them a donation.

     To order a full distribution written in `tar' on either a 1/4inch
     4-track QIC-24 cartridge or a 4mm DAT cartridge, send $210.00 to:

     interface to GNU Shogi.  They use the R4 Athena widgets and Xt
     Intrinsics to provide an interactive referee for managing a game between
     a user & a computer opponent, or between two computers.  You can also use
     `xboard' without GNU Chess to play through games in files or to play
     through games manually (force mode); in this case, moves aren't
     validated.

   * `xgrabsc'     (SrcCD)

     `xgrabsc' is a screen capture program similar to `xwd' but providing

Tapes
*****

We offer Unix source code on tapes in `tar' format on these media:

   * 4mm DAT cartridge tape.

   * 8mm Exabyte cartridge tape.

   * Sun DC300XLP QIC-24 1/4in cartridge (readable on some other systems).

   * Hewlett-Packard 16-track DC600HC 1/4in cartridge tape.

   * IBM RS/6000 QIC-150 1/4in cartridge (readable on some other systems).

   * 1600bpi 9-track 1/2in reel tape.

The contents of the various tapes for Unix systems are the same; only the
media are different.  For prices, see the *note Free Software Foundation
Order Form::..    Source code for the manuals & reference cards is included
(*note Documentation::.).

Some of the files on the tapes are compressed with `gzip' to allow more files
on each tape.  Refer to the top-level `README' file at the beginning of each
tape for instructions on uncompressing them.  `uncompress' and `unpack' *do
not work*!

Scheme Tape
-----------

Scheme is a simplified, lexically-scoped dialect of Lisp.  It was designed at
MIT and other universities to teach students the art of programming and to
research new parallel programming constructs and compilation techniques.

This tape now has MIT Scheme 7.3, which conforms to the "Revised^4 Report On
the Algorithmic Language Scheme" (MIT AI Lab Memo 848b), for which TeX source
is included.  It is written partly in C, but is presently hard to bootstrap.
Binaries that can be used to bootstrap it exist for: HP 9000 series 300, 400,
700, & 800 (running HP-UX 9.0), NeXT (NeXT OS 2 or 3.2), DEC Alpha (OSF/1),
IBM RS/6000 (AIX), Sun-3 or Sun-4 (SunOS 4.1), DECstation 3100/5100 (Ultrix
4.0), Sony NeWS-3250 (NEWS OS 5.01), & Intel i386 (MS-DOS, Windows 3.1 or NT).
If your system is not on this list & you don't enjoy the bootstrap challenge,
see "JACAL" in *Note GNU Software::.



X11 Tapes
---------

The two X11 tapes contain Version 11, Release 6 of the X Window System.     The
first tape has all of the core software, documentation, & some contributed
clients.  We call this the "required" X tape since it is necessary for
running X or Emacs under X.  The second, "optional" tape has contributed
libraries & toolkits, the Andrew User Interface System, games, etc.

The X11 Required tape also contains all fixes and patches released to date.
We update this tape as new fixes and patches are released for programs on
both tapes.  *Note Tape & CD-ROM Subscription Service::.

While supplies last, we will distribute X11R5 on the *Note November 1993
Source Code CD-ROM::.



Berkeley 4.4BSD-Lite Tape
-------------------------

The "4.4BSD-Lite" release is the last from the Computer Systems Research
Group at the University of California at Berkeley.  It has most of the BSD
software system, except for a few files that remain proprietary.  It is much
more complete than the previous "Net2" release.



VMS Emacs and VMS Compiler Tapes
--------------------------------

We offer two VMS tapes.     One has just GNU Emacs 18.59 (none of the other
software on the *Note Lisps/Emacs Tape::, is included).     The other has GCC
2.3.3, Bison 1.19 (to compile GCC), `gas' 1.38 (to assemble GCC's output), and
some library and include files (none of the other software on the *Note
Languages Tape::, is included).     We are not aware of a GDB port for VMS.
Both VMS tapes have DEC VAX executables from which you can bootstrap, as the
DEC VMS C compiler cannot compile GCC.    We do not have executables for DEC
Alpha VMS systems.  Please do not ask us to devote effort to VMS support,
because it is peripheral to the GNU Project.



CD-ROMs
*******

We offer these CD-ROMs:

   * Several editions of our *Note Source Code CD-ROMs::.

   * *Note December 1995 Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM::.

   * *Note December 1994 Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM::.

   * *Note December 1993 Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM::.

   * *Note MS-DOS Book with CD-ROM::.

   * *Note Debian GNU/Linux Book with CD-ROM::.

Our CD-ROMs are in ISO 9660 format & can be mounted as a read-only file
system on most computers.  If your driver supports it you can mount each CD
with "Rock Ridge" extensions (the MS-DOS CD-ROM is only in ISO 9660 format),
& it will look just like an ordinary Unix file system, rather than one full
of truncated & otherwise mangled names that fit vanilla ISO 9660.

You can build most of the software without copying the sources off the CD.
You only need enough disk space for object files and intermediate build
targets.



Pricing of the GNU CD-ROMs
--------------------------

If a business or organization is ultimately paying, the December 1995 Source
CDs costs $240.     It costs $60 if you, an individual, are paying out of your
own pocket.  The December 1995 Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM costs $220 for
a business or organization, and $55 for an individual.



What do the individual and company prices mean?
...............................................

The software on our disks is free; anyone can copy it and anyone can run it.
What we charge for is the physical disk and the service of distribution.

We charge two different prices depending on who is buying.  When a company or
other organization buys the December 1995 Source CD-ROMs, we charge $240.
When an individual buys the same CD-ROM, we charge just $60.  This
distinction is not a matter of who is allowed to use the software.  In either
case, once you have a copy, you can distribute as many copies as you wish and
there's no restriction on who can have or run them.  The price distinction is
entirely a matter of what kind of entity pays for the CD.

You, the reader, are certainly an individual, not a company.  If you are
buying a disk "in person", then you are probably doing so as an individual.
But if you expect to be reimbursed by your employer, then the disk is really
for the company; so please pay the company price and get reimbursed for it.
We won't try to check up on you--we use the honor system--so please cooperate.

Buying CDs at the company price is very helpful for GNU; just
140 Source CDs at that price support an FSF programmer or tech writer for a
year.



Why is there an individual price?
.................................

In the past, our distribution tapes have been ordered mainly by companies.
The CD at the price of $240 provides them with all of our software for a much
lower price than they would previously have paid for six different tapes.  To
lower the price more would cut into the FSF's funds very badly and decrease
the software development we can do.

However, for individuals, $240 is too high a price; hardly anyone could
afford that.  So we decided to make CDs available to individuals at the lower
price of $60.



Is there a maximum price?
.........................

Our stated prices are minimum prices.  Feel free to pay a higher price if you
wish to support GNU development more.  The sky's the limit; we will accept as
high a price as you can offer.    Or simply give a donation (tax-deductible in
the U.S.) to the Free Software Foundation, a tax-exempt public charity.



December 1995 Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM
--------------------------------------------

We now have the third edition of our CD-ROM that has binaries and complete
sources for GNU compiler tools for some systems which lack a compiler.    This
enables the people who use these systems to compile GNU and other free
software without having to buy a proprietary compiler.    You can also use
these GNU tools to compile your own C/C++/Objective-C programs.     Older
editions of this CD are available while supplies last at a reduced price; see
the *note Free Software Foundation Order Form::..

We hope to have more systems on each update of this CD.     If you can help
build binaries for new systems (especially those that don't come with a C
compiler), or have one to suggest, please contact us at the addresses on page
1.

These packages:

    * DJGPP 1.12m4 from GCC 2.6.3
    * GCC/G++/Objective-C 2.7.1
    * GNU C Library 1.09
    * GDB 4.15.1
    * Binutils 2.6
    * Bison 1.24
    * Emacs 19.29 (MS-DOS only)
    * Flex 2.5.2
    * Make 3.74
    * libg++ 2.7.1

On these platforms:

    * `i386-msdos'
    * `hppa1.0-hp-hpux9'
    * `sparc-sun-solaris2'
    * `sparc-sun-sunos4.1'



December 1994 Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM
--------------------------------------------

We still have the 2nd edition of our CD-ROM that contains executables for GNU
compiler tools for some systems which lack a compiler.    This enables the
people who use these systems to compile GNU and other free software without
having to buy a proprietary compiler.  You can also use the GNU compilation
system to compile your own C/C++/Objective-C programs.

We hope to have more systems on each update of this CD.     If you can help
build binaries for new systems (especially those that don't come with a C
compiler), or have one to suggest, please contact us at the addresses on
page 1.

These packages:

    *DJGPP 1.12.m2 from GCC 2.6.0
    *GCC/G++/Objective-C 2.6.2
    *GNU C Library 1.09
    *GDB 4.13
    *Binutils 2.5.2
    *Bison 1.22
    *Emacs 19.26 (MS-DOS only)
    *Flex 2.4.7
    *Make 3.72.1
    *libg++ 2.6.1

On these platforms:

    *`i386-msdos'
    *`hppa1.1-hp-hpux9'
    *`sparc-sun-solaris2'
    *`sparc-sun-sunos4.1'



December 1993 Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM
---------------------------------------------

We still have the 1st edition of our CD-ROM that contains executables for GNU
compiler tools for some systems which lack a compiler.    This will allow users
of those systems to compile GNU and other free software without having to buy
a proprietary compiler.

The CD-ROM is in ISO 9660 format and can be mounted as a read-only file
system on most operating systems.  If your driver supports it you can mount
the CD-ROM with "Rock Ridge" extensions and it will look just like an
ordinary Unix file system, rather than one full of truncated and otherwise
mangled names that fit the vanilla ISO 9660 specifications.

We hope to have more systems included with each update of this CD-ROM.    If
you can help build binaries for new systems (especially for systems that
don't come with a C compiler), or have a system to suggest, please contact us
at either address on the front cover.

These programs:

   * DJGPP 1.11.m1

   * GCC/G++/Objective C 2.5.7

   * GDB 4.11

   * GAS 2.2

   * Binutils 2.3

   * Bison 1.22

   * Flex 2.4.5

   * Make 3.70

   * libg++ 2.5.3

For these platforms:

   * `i386-msdos'

   * `hppa1.1-hp-hpux9'

   * `sparc-sun-solaris2'

   * `sparc-sun-sunos4.1'



Source Code CD-ROMs
-------------------

We have several versions of our Source Code CD-ROMs available, including:

   * *Note December 1995 Source Code CD-ROMs::, the newest release, has
     programs, bug fixes, & improvements not on the other CDs.

   * *Note June 1995 Source Code CD-ROM::.

   * *Note May 1994 Source Code CD-ROM::..

   * *Note November 1993 Source Code CD-ROM::.

   * May 1993 Source Code CD-ROM, see the *note Free Software Foundation
     Order Form::..

   * October 1992 Source Code CD-ROM, see the *note Free Software Foundation
     Order Form::..

The older Source CDs are available while supplies last at a reduced price
(please note that the December 1994 Source CD is permanently out of stock).
All the Source CDs have Texinfo source for the GNU manuals listed in *Note
Documentation::.

The VMS tapes' contents are *not* included.  Many programs that are only on
MS-DOS diskettes & not on the tapes are also *not* included.  The MIT Scheme
& X11 Optional tapes' contents are *not* on the older Source CDs.  *Note
Tapes:: & *Note MS-DOS Diskettes::.

There are no precompiled programs on these Source CDs.    You will need a C
compiler (programs which need some other interpreter or compiler normally
provide the C source for a bootstrapping program).  We ship C compiler
binaries for some systems on the *Note Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM::.

MS-DOS Book with CD-ROM
-----------------------

We are working on our first book describing GNU Software for MS-DOS, but we
do not know when it will be finished.  It will include a CD-ROM with all the
sources & binaries on the MS-DOS Diskettes and more.

Please do NOT contact us about this book until we announce it on our mailing
lists (to subscribe, ask `[e-mail]'), because it just
slows us down.



Debian GNU/Linux Book with CD-ROM
---------------------------------

We are working on our first book describing Debian GNU/Linux but we do not
know when it will be finished.    Please do NOT contact us about this book
until we announce it on our mailing lists (ask
`[e-mail]' to subscribe), because it just slows us
down.

A CD will be inside the book with sources & binaries for Debian GNU/Linux,
which is a complete operating system for i386/i486/Pentium.  It is a
GNU/Linux system--that is to say, a variant GNU system which uses Linux as
the kernel.  (All the systems now available that use the Linux kernel are
GNU/Linux systems, see item "Linux" in *Note Free Software for
Microcomputers::.)

Debian is being developed by Ian Murdock and the Debian Association in
conjunction with the Free Software Foundation.    We are distributing it as an
interim measure until the GNU kernel (the Hurd) is ready for users.

For details on Debian & how to help, see URL: `http://www.debian.org/' or
FTP, `/pub/gnu/GNUinfo/DEBIAN' from a GNU FTP host (*note How to Get GNU
Software::.).  FTP Debian under `/debian' from `ftp.debian.org'.



MS-DOS Diskettes
****************

The FSF distributes some of the GNU software ported to MS-DOS, on 3.5inch
1.44MB diskettes.  These disks have both sources and executables.



DJGPP Diskettes
---------------

We offer DJGPP on 30 diskettes.     For further details, see *Note GNU
Software::.  The DJGPP diskettes contain the following:

    * Binutils 2.5.2
    * Bison 1.22
    * Diffutils 2.6
    * DJGPP 1.12m4
    * flex 2.4.7
    * GCC/G++ 2.6.3
    * GDB 4.12
    * Groff 1.09
    * gzip 1.24
    * libg++ 2.6.2
    * make 3.71
    * patch 2.1
    * sed 1.18
    * Texinfo 3.1



Emacs Diskettes
---------------

Two versions of GNU Emacs are included on the Emacs diskettes we distribute:
GNU Emacs version 19.29 handles 8-bit character sets; the other, MULE version
2.2, handles 16-bit character sets including Kanji.



Selected Utilities Diskettes
----------------------------

The GNUish MS-DOS Project ported GNU software to PC compatibles.  Though
GNUish is no longer active, users still ask for these ports done some years
ago.  We offer these ports on five diskettes.  In general, the ports run on
8086/80286-based 16-bit machines; an 80386 is not required.  Some are
necessarily missing features.

Included are: `cpio', `diff', `find', `flex', `gdbm', `grep', `indent',
`less', `m4', `make', `ptx', RCS, `sed', `shar', `sort', & Texinfo.



Windows Diskette
----------------

We offer GNU Chess and `gnuplot' for Microsoft Windows on a single diskette.



Tape & CD-ROM Subscription Service
**********************************

If you do not have net access, our subscription service enables you to stay
current with the latest GNU developments.  For a one-time cost equivalent to
three tapes or CD-ROMs (plus shipping in some cases), we will ship you four
new versions of the tape of your choice or the Source Code CD-ROM.  The tapes
are sent each quarter; the CD-ROMs are sent as they are issued (currently
twice a year, but we hope to make it more frequent).

Regularly, we will send you a new version of a Lisps/Emacs, Languages,
Utilities, or X Window System (X11R6) Required tape, or the Source CD-ROM.
The MIT Scheme and X Window System Optional tapes are not changed often
enough to warrant quarterly updates.  We do not yet know if we will be
offering subscriptions to the Compiler Tools Binaries or our new Books with
CD-ROM.

Since Emacs 19 is on the Lisps/Emacs Tape and the Source CD-ROM, a
subscription to either is an easy way to keep current with Emacs 19 as it
evolves.

A subscription is an easy way to keep up with the regular bug fixes to the X
Window System.    We update the X11R6 Required tape as fixes and patches are
issued throughout the year.  Each edition of the *Note Source Code CD-ROMs::,
also has updated sources for the required part of the X Window System.

Please note: In two cases, you must pay 4 times the normal shipping required
for a single order when you pay for each subscription.    If you're in Alaska,
Hawaii, or Puerto Rico you must add $20.00 for shipping for each
subscription.  If you're outside of U.S., Canada, and Puerto Rico, you must
add $80.00 for each subscription.  See "Unix and VMS Software" and "Shipping
Instructions" on the *note Free Software Foundation Order Form::..



FSF T-shirt
***********

There is a GNU & improved T-shirt.  The front has the GNU Emacs Lisp code
`(USE 'GNU)' with "`()'" being the dancing parentheses from the cover of our
`GNU Emacs Lisp Reference Manual' (drawn by Berkeley, CA artist Etienne
Suvasa).  The back of the shirt is still imprinted with the Preamble to the
GNU General Public License.

These shirts come in two colors, Natural & Black.  Natural is an off-white,
unbleached, undyed, environment-friendly cotton, printed with black ink, & is
great for tye-dyeing or displaying as is.  Black is printed with white ink &
is perfect for late night hacking.  All shirts are thick 100% cotton, & come
in sizes M, L, XL, & XXL.  GNU shirts often create spontaneous friendships at
technical conferences and on major university campuses!     (They also make
great gifts!)



Free Software Foundation Order Form
***********************************

All items are distributed with permission to copy and to redistribute.
Texinfo source for each manual and source for each reference card is on
the appropriate tape, diskette, or CD-ROM; the prices for these magnetic
media do not include printed documentation.  All items are provided on
an ``as is'' basis, with no warranty of any kind.  Please allow six
weeks for delivery (though it won't usually take that long).


     PRICE AND CONTENTS MAY CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE AFTER June 30, 1996.
