-will continue to contribute corporate funds to the FSF to accompany gifts by
-its employees, and by its customers and their employees.
-
-Donations payable to the Free Software Foundation should be sent by eligible
-persons to Cygnus Solutions, which will add its gifts and forward the total
-to the FSF each quarter. The FSF will provide the contributor with a receipt
-to recognize the contribution (which is tax-deductible on U.S. tax returns).

-Free Software Redistributors Donate
-***********************************
-
-In adddition to their conference donation, Red Hat Software has agreed to
-donate $1.00 to the FSF for every copy of Red Hat Archives sold. They have
-also added a GNU logo to the back of that CD with the words "Supports the
-Free Software Foundation".
-
-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 has made it even clearer: their CD says,
-"Price 90 DM, + 12 DM donation to the FSF." We thank them for their
-contribution to our efforts.
-
-Kyoto Micro Computer of Japan regularly gives us 10% of their GNU-related
-sales.
-
-Mr. Hiroshi, Mr. Kojima, and the other authors of the `Linux Primer' in Japan
-have donated money from the sales of their book.
-
-Infomagic has continued to make sizeable donations to the FSF.
-
-At the request of author Arnold Robbins, Specialized Systems Consultants, Inc.
-continues to donate 3% of their profits from selling `Effective AWK
-Programming'. We would also like to acknowledge the many SSC authors who
-have donated their royalties and fees to the FSF.
-
-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 & 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
-***********************************************
-
- * Hurd Progress (Also *note What Is the Hurd::.)
-
- We have made two test releases of the Hurd, and we will make another
- (version 0.2) in this month. Stability is improving, and we have begun
- modifying various user-level utilities to understand new Hurd filesystem
- features (fileutils, shellutils, tar, etc.).
-
- One way for people to help out is to compile and run as much third-party
- free software as they can; in this way we can find bugs and deficiencies
- with some rapidity. Volunteers with a PC are therefore eagerly sought
- to get the new 0.2 release and compile their favorite Unix programs and
- games.
-
- * GNU System Progress
-
- Version 0.2 of the GNU system will be released in this month, to coincide
- with the 0.2 release of the Hurd. This complete GNU system is available
- by FTP. We are working with Ian Murdock to develop an excellent package
- management system for GNU. This will make administering and upgrading
- the system much easier. Because of features only the Hurd has, the GNU
- package management system will be simpler and more featureful than
- similar package systems for various GNU/Linux distributions.
-
- * New Source Code CD! (See *Note January 1997 Source Code CD-ROMs::)
-
- We are releasing the January 1997 (Edition 9) Source Code CD-ROM this
- month. Once again, it is a two disk set. It includes several new
- programs: `gforth', `gpc', <Meta-HTML>, `stow', `units', VRweb, `wget',
- `windows32api', and `xinfo'. On the CD-ROMs are full distributions of
- X11R6.3, MIT Scheme, Emacs, GCC, and current versions of all other GNU
- Software. *Note GNU Software::, for more about these packages.
-
- * New Compiler Tools CD-ROM
-
- We are releasing the January 1997 (Edition 4) Compiler Tools Binaries
- CD. Support is included for several new operating systems.
-
- The Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM 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 the top menu. For more information, see
- *Note Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM::.
-
- * New/Updated Manuals since Last Bulletin (See *Note Documentation::)
-
- Since the last bulletin, we have published new editions of: `Debugging
- with GDB', for version 4.16 with a new color cover; `Texinfo' Manual,
- edition 2.24; & the `GNU Emacs Manual', for version 19.33 with a new
- color cover. `Using and Porting GNU CC' has been re-printed in a
- lay-flat bound edition with a new color cover. A new Bison Manual with
- a new color cover is planned.
-
- * Give to GNU the United Way!
-
- As a 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization, the FSF is eligible to receive
- United Way funds. When donating to United Way, one can specify that all
- or part of the donation be directed to the FSF. On the donor form,
- check the "Specific Requests" box and include the sentence, "Send my
- gift to the Free Software Foundation, 59 Temple Place, Suite 330,
- Boston, MA 02111." We especially appreciate the donations from Microsoft
- matching the United Way donations of their employees. Also see *Note
- Donations Translate Into Free Software:: and *Note Cygnus Matches
- Donations!::.
-
- * 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
- Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM::.
-
- * MULE Merge Almost Complete
-
- MULE is the Multi-Lingual Emacs developed by Ken'ichi Handa at the
- Electro-Technical Lab in Tsukuba, Japan. Handa has readied the code for
- merging into Emacs and we expect to complete the merge soon.
-
- * GCC (For current status on GCC and GNAT, *note GNU Software::.)
-
- New front ends for GCC are being done for Pascal & Chill. Pascal,
- `gpc', stagnated for some years, but should be released by the time you
- read this. See `http://agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de/~gnu-pascal'.
-
- * GUILE
-
- GUILE is currently available as a test release. GNU's Ubiquitous
- Intelligent Language for Extension is an SCM-based library that can make
- any ordinary C program extensible. (For SCM info, see "JACAL" in *Note
- GNU Software::.)
-
- Also being developed are SCSH-compatible system call & Tk interfaces, a
- module system, dynamic linking support, & a byte-code interpreter.
- Support for Emacs Lisp & a more C-like language is coming.
-
- * Texinfo (For current status, *note GNU Software::.)
-
- Texinfo now provides macro facilities and supports multicolumn tables.
- It comes with an `install-info' program that packages can use to update
- the `dir' file automatically when they install their Info files.
-
- * GNU Common Lisp (For current status, *note GNU Software::.)
-
- Version 2.2.1 of GNU Common Lisp (GCL) was released in December '96. It
- now includes a graphical interface to the Tk widget system. All
- documentation is now Texinfo-based, with built-in regexp matching used
- to access the documentation. A first pass at the Common Lisp condition
- system is also included. Version 2.2.1 contains mainly updates to allow
- GCL 2.2 to work correctly with current operating system levels, and to
- fix bugs. Volunteers to help with the move to the ANSI standard are
- most welcome; please contact `schelter@math.utexas.edu'.
-
- * Experimental Electronic Cash
-
- `http://www.lysator.liu.se/~nisse/NCash' is an experimental
- implementation of anonymous electronic cash which is to be released as
- free software.
-
- * HTML Professional and GPL
-
- The recent development and release of HTML Professional was made under
- the terms of the GNU GPL. In order to facilitate distribution, the GPL
- text was re-encoded into this more recent version of HTML, and is now
- distributed with HTML Pro. An online copy can be retrieved at
- `http://www.arbornet.org/~silmaril/dtds/html/gnugpl.html'.
-
- HTML Pro is an unofficial version of the HTML DTD. HTML Pro is
- distributed for discussion by the `www-html' mailing list. It
- composites all other known versions, and allows World Wide Web designers
- to use recent experimental additions in a rational and structured manner.
- It comes with a `.ced' file for GNU Emacs/psgml-mode and can be gotten at
- `ftp://www.ucc.ie/pub/html/htmlpro.{zip|tar.gz|zip.hqx}'.
- Documentation is at
- `http://www.arbornet.org/~silmaril/dtds/html/htmlpro.html'.
-
- * Meta-HTML 5.01 Source Release
-
- Version 5.01 of Universal Access Inc.'s <Meta-HTML> is now available.
-
- <Meta-HTML> is a programming language specifically designed to work
- within the environment of the World Wide Web. Although it is a genuine
- programming language, suitable for large-scale symbolic manipulation,
- <Meta-HTML> also provides the most commonly wanted Web functionality as
- built-in primitives, so you don't have to write them. You can find out
- more about the theory of implementation in this white paper
- `http://www.metahtml.com/meta-html/manifesto.html'.
-
- Web pages are authored using HTML and <Meta-HTML> statements freely
- intermixed. When a page is requested by a browser, the page is passed
- through the <Meta-HTML> engine, which dynamically processes any
- <Meta-HTML> statements to produce a final HTML page which is delivered
- to the browser.
-
- The source distribution provides several different interpreter options:
- a CGI engine which can be run by any Unix Web server; a full-featured
- Web server (mhttpd) with the interpreter built in; a standalone
- processor, much like Perl or Tcl; and an interactive debugger, with a
- feel similar to GDB (mdb).
-
- There is a user mailing list: `metahtml-users@metahtml.com'. You can
- subscribe on the Web at `http://www.metahtml.com/E-Mail/', or by sending
- mail to `metahtml-users-request@metahtml.com'.
-
- Pre-compiled distribution sets for some systems are available via the
- <Meta-HTML> Web site at `http://www.metahtml.com'.
-
- * VRweb Browser
-
- VRweb, a browser for 3D models on the Web written in the Virtual Reality
- Modeling Language (VRML), is now available under the GPL. VRweb works
- in conjunction with Web browsers on Unix & Windows platforms.
-
- VRweb is a joint project of IICM (home of Hyper-G), NCSA (home of
- Mosaic), & the University of Minnesota (home of Gopher). The software
- is freely available in binary & source. VRweb 1.2 for Unix has just
- been released, VRweb 1.2 for Windows will follow in due course. You can
- download VRweb from `ftp://iicm.tu-graz.ac.at/pub/Hyper-G/VRweb/UNIX'
- and numerous mirror sites. Further information on VRweb can be found at
- `http://hyperg.iicm.tu-graz.ac.at/vrweb'.
-
- VRML is a non-proprietary, platform-independent file format for 3D
- graphics on the Internet. Also see `http://www.sdsc.edu/vrml/', the
- VRML Repository.

-
-
-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. The Deluxe Distribution provides binaries with the source code and
-includes six T-shirts, all our CD-ROMs, printed manuals, & reference cards.
-
-The FSF Deluxe Distribution contains the binaries and sources to hundreds of
-different programs including Emacs, the GNU C/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 here. However, we can only compile the programs that
-already support your chosen machine/system - porting is a separate matter.
-(To commission a port, see 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 on a write-once CD-ROM (in ISO 9660 format with "Rock
-Ridge" extensions), or on one of these tapes 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 `Bison', `Calc', `GAWK', `GCC', `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 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 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
-`Using and Porting GNU CC', `GDB', `Emacs', `Emacs Lisp Reference',
-`Programming in Emacs Lisp: An Introduction', `GNU Awk User's Guide', `Make',
-& `Bison' manuals have this binding. Our other manuals also lie flat when
-opened, using a GBC binding. 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' (for Version 4.16) 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' (12th Edition for Version 19.33) 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' (October 1995 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) cover 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 GNU Awk User's Guide' (Edition 1.0 for Version 3.0) tells how to use
-`gawk'. It is written for those who have never used `awk' and describes
-features of this powerful string and record manipulation language. It
-clearly delineates those features which are part of POSIX `awk' from `gawk'
-extensions, providing a comprehensive guide to `awk' program portability.
-
-`GNU Make' (Edition 0.50 for Version 3.75 Beta) 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' (November 1995 Edition for Version 1.25) 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' (November 1995 Edition for Version 2.7.2) 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++.
-
-The `Texinfo' manual (Edition 2.24 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, accented & special
-characters, indexes, cross references, & how to catch mistakes.
-
-`The Termcap Manual' (3rd Edition for Version 1.3), 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 0.08 for Version 2.0) 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 `bug-glibc-manual@prep.ai.mit.edu'.
-
-The `Emacs Calc Manual' (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 *Note CD-ROMs::, and printed *Note Documentation::, which
-includes manuals and reference cards. In the 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 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 FTP distributions are compressed. We have
-software on our 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.)
-
-You may need to build GNU `make' before you build our other software. Some
-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" and "Automake" 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.

-
-Key to cross reference:
-
- BinCD January 1997 Binaries CD-ROM
- SrcCD January 1997 Source CD-ROMs
-
-[FSFman] shows that we sell a manual for that package. [FSFrc] shows we sell
-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)
-
- `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 *Also see* `http://www.apache.org/' (SrcCD)
-
- Apache is an HTTP server designed as a successor to the NCSA family of
- web servers. It adds a significant amount of new functionality, has an
- extensive API for modular enhancements, is extremely flexible without
- compromising speed, and has an active development group and user
- community.
-
- * Autoconf (SrcCD)
-
- 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.
-
- * Automake (SrcCD)
-
- Automake is a tool for generating `Makefile.in's for use with Autoconf.
- The generated makefiles are compliant with GNU Makefile standards.
-
- * BASH (SrcCD)
-
- 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' (SrcCD)
-
- `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, 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, SrcCD)
-
- 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 *See *Note Documentation::* (BinCD, SrcCD) [FSFman, FSFrc]
-
- Bison is an upwardly compatible replacement for the parser generator
- `yacc'. Texinfo source for the `Bison Manual' and reference card are
- included.
-
- * C Library *See *Note Forthcoming GNUs::* (BinCD, SrcCD) [FSFman]
-
- The GNU C library supports ISO C-1989, ISO C/amendment 1-1995, POSIX
- 1003.1-1990, POSIX 1003.1b-1993, POSIX 1003.1c-1995 (when the underlying
- system permits), & most of the functions in POSIX 1003.2-1992. It is
- nearly compliant with the extended XPG4.2 specification which guarantees
- upward compatibility with 4.4BSD & many System V functions.
-
- When used with the GNU Hurd, the C Library performs many functions of the
- Unix system calls directly. Mike Haertel has written a fast `malloc'
- which wastes less memory than the old GNU version.
-
- GNU `stdio' lets you define new kinds of streams, just by writing a few
- C functions. Two methods for handling translated messages help writing
- internationalized programs & the user can adopt the environment the
- program runs in to conform with local conventions. Extended `getopt'
- functions are already used to parse options, including long options, in
- many GNU utilities. The name lookup functions now are modularized which
- makes it easier to select the service which is needed for the specific
- database & the document interface makes it easy to add new services.
- Texinfo source for the `GNU C Library Reference Manual' is included
- (*note Documentation::.).
-
- Previous versions of the GNU C library ran on a large number of systems.
- The architecture-dependent parts of the C library have not been updated
- since development on version 2.0 started, so today it runs out of the
- box only on GNU/Hurd (all platforms GNU/Hurd also runs on) & GNU/Linux
- (ix86, Alpha, m68k, work is in progress for MIPS & Sparc). Other
- architectures will become available again as soon as somebody does the
- port.
-
- * C++ Library (BinCD, SrcCD)
-
- The GNU C++ library (libg++) contains an extensive collection of
- container and utility classes, including Obstacks, multiple-precision
- Integers and Rationals, Complex numbers, BitSets, and BitStrings.
-
- The distribution also includes the libstdc++ library. This implements
- library facilities defined by the forthcoming ANSI/ISO C++ standard,
- including strings, the iostream library, and a port of the Standard
- Template Library.
-
- * Calc (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 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)
-
- `cfengine' is used to maintain site-wide configuration of a
- heterogeneous Unix network using a simple high level language. Its
- appearance is similar to `rdist', but allows many more operations to be
- performed automatically. See Mark Burgess, "A Site Configuration
- Engine", `Computing Systems', Vol. 8, No. 3 (ask `office@usenix.org' how
- to get a copy).
-
- * Chess (SrcCD)
-
- GNU Chess lets most modern computers play a full game of chess. It has
- a plain terminal interface, a curses interface, & the unique X Windows
- interface `xboard'. Best results are obtained using GNU C to compile
- GNU Chess.
-
- Recent improvements include "configure"-capability, correct thinking on
- opponent's time, makefile for Windows NT, full Windows 95/NT
- compatibility, parallel Unix & Windows 95/NT versions, major crash bug
- fix & various other minor improvements & bug fixes.
-
- Stuart Cracraft founded GNU Chess & is the project lead for the 10+ year
- history of GNU Chess. Acknowledgements for this past year's work
- include Chua Kong Sian, National Supercomputing Research Center,
- Singapore; & Conor McCarthy, Biomolecular/Biomed Science at Griffith
- University, Australia.

- Send bugs to `bug-gnu-chess@prep.ai.mit.edu' & general comments to
- `info-gnu-chess@prep.ai.mit.edu'. Visit the author's website at
- `http://www.win.net/~msm/index.html'. Play GNU Chess on the web at
- `http://www.delorie.com/game-room/chess'.
-
- * CLISP (SrcCD)
-
- CLISP is a Common Lisp implementation by Bruno Haible & Michael Stoll.
- It mostly supports the Lisp described by `Common LISP: The Language (2nd
- edition)' & the ANSI Common Lisp standard. CLISP includes an
- interpreter, a byte-compiler, a large subset of CLOS & a foreign language
- interface. The user interface language (English, German, French) can be
- chosen at run time. An X11 API is available through CLX & Garnet.
- CLISP needs only 2 MB of memory & runs on many microcomputers (including
- MS-DOS systems, OS/2, Windows NT, Windows 95, Amiga 500-4000, & Acorn
- RISC PC) & all kinds of Unix systems.
-
- * Common Lisp *Also *note GNUs Flashes::.* (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).
-
- GCL version 2.2.1 is released under the GNU Library General Public
- License.
-
- * CLX (SrcCD)
-
- CLX is an X Window interface library for GCL. This is separate from the
- built-in TK interface.
-
- * `cpio' (SrcCD)
-
- `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)
-
- CVS is a version control system (like RCS or SCCS) which allows you to
- keep old versions of files (usually source code), keep a log of who,
- when, and why changes occurred, etc. It handles multiple developers,
- multiple directories, triggers to enable/log/control various operations,
- and can work over a wide area network. It does not handle build
- management or bug-tracking; these are handled by `make' and GNATS,
- respectively.
-
- * DejaGnu (SrcCD)
-
- DejaGnu is a framework to test programs with a single front end for all
- tests. DejaGnu's flexibility & consistency makes it easy to write tests.
- DejaGnu will also work with remote hosts and embedded systems.
-
- DejaGnu comes with `expect', which runs scripts to conduct dialogs with
- programs.
-
- * Diffutils (SrcCD)
-
- GNU `diff' compares files showing line-by-line changes in several
- flexible formats. It is much faster than traditional Unix versions. The
- Diffutils package has `diff', `diff3', `sdiff', & `cmp'. Future plans
- include support for internationalization (e.g., error messages in
- Chinese) & some non-Unix PC environments, & a library interface that can
- be used by other free software.
-
- * DJGPP *Also see "GCC" in this article* (BinCD)
-
- DJ Delorie has ported GCC/G++ to i386s running 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). Version 2 was released in Feb. 1996,
- & needs a DPMI environment; a free DPMI server is included.
-
- FTP from `ftp.simtel.net' in `/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/' (or a SimTel
- mirror site).
-
- Ask `listserv@delorie.com', to join a DJGPP users mailing list.
-
- * `dld' (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. `dld' supports a.out object types on the following
- platforms: Convex C-Series (BSD), i386/i486/Pentium (GNU/Linux), Sequent
- Symmetry i386 (Dynix 3), Sun-3 (SunOS 3 & 4), Sun-4 (SunOS 4), & VAX
- (Ultrix).
-
- * `doschk' (SrcCD)
-
- 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.
-
- * `ed' (SrcCD)
-
- `ed' is the standard text editor. It is line-oriented and can be used
- interactively or in scripts.
-
- * Elib (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 *Also *note Forthcoming GNUs::.* [FSFman(s), FSFrc]
-
- 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 or 95. In
- addition to its powerful native command set, Emacs can emulate the
- editors vi & EDT (DEC'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 19 (SrcCD) [FSFman(s), FSFrc]
-
- Emacs 19 works with character-only terminals & with the X Window System
- (with or without an X toolkit). Features new to 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; use of the X
- toolkit; interfacing with the X resource manager; property lists
- associated with regions of text in a buffer; multiple fonts & colors
- defined by those properties; simplified/improved processing of function
- keys, mouse movement & clicks; X selection processing, including
- clipboard selections; hooks to be run if the point or mouse moves
- outside a certain range; menu bars & popup menus defined by keymaps;
- scrollbars; before- & 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; many
- updated libraries; Autoconf-based configuration; support for version
- control systems (CVS, RCS, & SCCS); & European character sets.
-
- Features added recently to Emacs 19 include the ability to open frames
- on more than one X display from a single Emacs job, operation under
- MS-DOS, MS Windows, and Windows NT, displaying multiple views of an
- outline at the same time, Lisp-level timers for real time and idle time,
- 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.
- Also see *Note Forthcoming GNUs::.
-
- Emacs 19 works on: Acorn RISC (RISCiX); Alliant FX/2800 (BSD); Alpha
- (OSF/1 or GNU/Linux); Apollo (DomainOS); Bull DPX/2 2nn & 3nn (SysV.3) &

- EXL, Stride (system rel. 2), Tahoe, Tandem Integrity S2, Tektronix 16000,
- Triton 88, Ustation E30 (SS5E), Whitechapel (MG1), & Wicat.
-
- * `es' (SrcCD)
-
- `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.
-
- * `enscript' (SrcCD)
-
- `enscript' is an upwardly-compatible replacement for the Adobe
- `enscript' program. It formats ASCII files (outputting in Postscript)
- and stores generated output to a file or sends it directly to the
- printer.
-
- * Exim (SrcCD)
-
- Exim is a new Internet mail transfer agent, similar in style to Smail 3.
- It can handle relatively high volume mail systems, header rewriting,
- control over which hosts/nets may use it as a relay, blocking of
- unwanted mail from specified hosts/nets/senders, and multiple local
- domains on one mail host ("virtual domains") with several options for
- the way these are handled.
-
- * `f2c' *Also see "Fortran" below & in *Note Forthcoming GNUs::*
- (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.bell-labs.com'
- or by email from `netlib@netlib.bell-labs.com'. For a summary, see the
- file `/netlib/f2c/readme.Z'.
-
- * `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 (SrcCD)
-
- The Fileutils are: `chgrp', `chmod', `chown', `cp', `dd', `df', `dir',
- `dircolors', `du', `install', `ln', `ls', `mkdir', `mkfifo', `mknod',
- `mv', `rm', `rmdir', `sync', `touch', & `vdir'.
-
- * Findutils (SrcCD)
-
- `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)
-
- 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, SrcCD) [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') *Also *note Forthcoming GNUs::.* (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)
-
- 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), etc. It includes: `bpltobzr', `bzrto',
- `charspace', `fontconvert', `gsrenderfont', `imageto', `imgrotate',
- `limn', & `xbfe'.
-
- * GAWK (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 `The GNU Awk User's
- Guide' comes with the software (*note Documentation::.).
-
- * `gcal' (SrcCD)
-
- `gcal' is a program for printing calendars. It displays different
- styled calendar sheets, eternal holiday lists, and fixed date warning
- lists.
-
- * GCC *Also *note GNUs Flashes::.* (BinCD, SrcCD) [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. (Also see "GNAT" later in this article for Ada language
- supports.) 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.
-
- GCC is a fairly portable optimizing compiler which performs many
- optimizations. They include: automatic register allocation, common
- sub-expression elimination (CSE) (including a certain amount of CSE
- between basic blocks - though not all the supported machine descriptions
- provide for scheduling or delay slots), invariant code motion from
- loops, induction variable optimizations, constant propagation, copy
- propagation, delayed popping of function call arguments, tail recursion
- elimination, integration of inline functions & frame pointer elimination,
- instruction scheduling, loop unrolling, filling of delay slots, leaf
- function optimization, optimized multiplication by constants, the
- ability to assign attributes to instructions, & many local optimizations
- 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.

-
- * GDB (BinCD, SrcCD) [FSFman, FSFrc]
-
- GDB, the GNU DeBugger, is a source-level debugger for C, C++, & Fortran.
- It provides partial support for Modula-2 & Chill.
-
- GDB can debug both C & C++, & will work with executables made by many
- different compilers; but, C++ debugging will have some limitations if
- you do not use GCC.
-
- GDB has a command line user interface, and Emacs has GDB mode as an
- interface. 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 ARM, Hitachi H8/300, Hitachi H8/500, Hitachi
- Super-H, PowerPC, WDC 65816, & 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, NetBSD), DEC Alpha (OSF/1),

-CD-ROMs
-*******
-
-We offer these CD-ROMs:
-
- * Several editions of our *Note Source Code CD-ROMs::.
-
- * January 1997 *Note Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM::.
-
- * December 1995 Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM, see the *note Free
- Software Foundation Order Form::.
-
- * December 1994 Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM, see the *note Free
- Software Foundation Order Form::.
-
- * December 1993 Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM, see the *note Free
- Software Foundation Order Form::.
-
-Our CDs 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 & it will look like a regular 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 January 1997 Source CD
-set costs $240. The set costs $60 if you, an individual, are paying out of
-your own pocket. The January 1997 Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM costs $220
-for a business or organization, and $55 for an individual.
-
-
-
-What Do the Different 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 January 1997 Source CD-ROMs, we charge $240.
-When an individual buys the same CD-ROMs, 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 CDs.
-
-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
-150 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 were 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.
-
-
-
-January 1997 Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM
--------------------------------------------
-
-The fourth edition of our CD-ROM that has binaries and complete sources for
-GNU compiler tools for some systems which lack a compiler, will be available
-at the end of January 1997. 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 the
-top menu.
-
-These packages:
-
- * DJGPP
- * GCC/G++/Objective-C
- * GNU C Library
- * GDB
- * Binutils
- * Bison
- * Emacs (MS-DOS only)
- * Flex
- * Make
- * libg++
-
-On these platforms:
-
- * `i386-msdos'
- * `hppa1.1-hp-hpux9'
- * `hppa1.1-hp-hpux10'
- * `powerpc-ibm-aix4.2'
- * `sparc-sun-solaris2.4'
- * `sparc-sun-solaris2.5'
- * `sparc-sun-sunos4.1'
-
-
-
-Source Code CD-ROMs
--------------------
-
-We have several versions of our Source Code CD-ROMs available, including:
-
- * *Note January 1997 Source Code CD-ROMs::, the newest release, has
- programs, bug fixes, & improvements not on the other CDs.
-
- * *Note July 1996 Source Code CD-ROMs::.
-
- * December 1995 Source Code CD-ROMs, see the *note Free Software
- Foundation Order Form::.
-
- * June 1995 Source Code CD-ROM, see the *note Free Software Foundation
- Order Form::.
-
- * May 1994 Source Code CD-ROM, see the *note Free Software Foundation
- Order Form::.
-
- * November 1993 Source Code CD-ROM, see the *note Free Software Foundation
- Order Form::.
-
- * 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::.
-
-MIT Scheme & much of X11 is *not* on the older Source CDs.
-
-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::.
-
-
-
-January 1997 Source Code CD-ROMs
-................................
-
-The 9th edition of our Source Code CD will be available at the end of January
-1997 with two CD-ROM disks. It has programs, bug fixes, & improvements not
-on the older Source CDs. It has these packages, & some manuals that are not
-part of packages. The version number of each package listed might be higher
-on the 9th edition CD due to new releases being made between now and then.

-CD-ROM Subscription Service
-***************************
-
-Our subscription service enables you to stay current with the latest GNU
-developments. For a one-time cost equivalent to three Source CD-ROMs (plus
-shipping in some cases), we will ship you four new versions of the *Note
-Source Code CD-ROMs::. The CD-ROMs are sent as they are issued (currently
-twice a year, but we hope to make it more frequent). We do not yet know if
-we will be offering subscriptions to the Compiler Tools Binaries CD.
-
-A subscription is an easy way to keep up with the regular bug fixes to the X
-Window System. Each edition of the *Note Source Code CD-ROMs::, has updated
-sources for 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 the U.S., Canada, and Puerto Rico, you
-must add $80.00 for each subscription. See "CD-ROMs" and "Tax and Shipping
-Costs" on the *note Free Software Foundation Order Form::.
-

-
-FSF T-shirt
-***********
-
-The front of our T-shirt 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 shirt's back has
-the Preamble to the GNU General Public License.
-
-These shirts come in black, purple, red, pink, burgundy, blue, and natural
-(off-white). When you order, please give 3 choices. Black and purple are
-printed in white; the other colors are printed in black. All shirts are
-thick 100% cotton, and come in sizes S, M, L, XL, and XXL (but they run small
-so you may want a larger size than usual).
-
-GNU T-shirts often create spontaneous friendships at conferences & on
-university campuses. They also make great gifts for friends & family,
-including children!
