******************************************************************************
   Laplace is now available  to different CPU types.  To install Laplace,  use
need the archive
   LaplaceBase.lha
and at least one of
   Laplace000.lha
   Laplace020.lha
   Laplace020fp.lha
   Laplace040.lha
depending of your  CPU. Depack these  archives into the  same directory  (e.g.
'RAM:') and start the installer script.
******************************************************************************


******************************************************************************
   You need MUI3.3+ and the Installer  V43.3. Download them now, if you  don't
have them already.
   MUI -> util/libs/mui39usr.lha
   Installer -> util/misc/Installer43_3.lha
******************************************************************************


******************************************************************************
   Laplace is now SHAREWARE!!
   Although it is still a beta version, I decided to start with a lower  price
than I planned. When Laplace gets some more powerful features (like a function
plotter), this price will increase. But if you register now, you won't have to
pay the difference!! I  will start with 20DM  or US$15. See the  documentation
for more details.

Description:

    Laplace is (or at least should be) an universal tool for  mathematical
    calculations. It lacks such a GUI with hundreds of windows like  those
    other progs I've found on AMIGA.
       Instead it works  like a  shell, you enter  a command  and get  the
    result displayed, which is much more flexible.
       This is just a beta version!!
       There WILL be much  more implemented, but I  need YOUR support  and
    suggestions!!!!


Features:

     · Basic two dimensional plotter and animated plots.
     · Export graphs as PS or EPS.
     · Works fully symbolic.
     · Most basic complex, vector and matrix operations.
     · Basic statistical operations on sets.
     · Full derivation of functions.
     · Numerical integration.
     · Export formulas to LaTeX.
     · Nice GUI, almost everything is configureable.
     · Offers a revolutionary way of handling experimental results with
       errors using gaussian error distribution.
     · Localized, currently english and german.
     · Full featured installer script.
     · Documentation in AmigaGuide.
     · Procedures and simple programming features.


Requirements:

     · CPU: 68000 or better (no FPU needed)
     · OS: 3.0 or better
     · MUI: 3.3
     · MEM: much, 4MB should be minimum


Changes since V0.12:

     · 8.4.1998:
        · ß1: Bugfix:  redrawing  wath  screwed  up  with  asynchron
          calculation.
        · ß2: Plotter: First simple PS export.
     · 12.4.1998:
        · ß3: Plotter: PS and EPS export works fine.
        · ß4: Plotter: Added axis labels and legend.
     · 13.4.1998:
        · ß5: Plotter: Now displays e.g 2*10 ^ 2  instead of 2e2 .
        · ß6: Manual: New appendix Future plans.
        · ß7: Plotter: Axis number  were place incorrectly with  log
          scale.
        · ß8: Plotter: GhostScript (if  installed) can now  directly
          be invoked to print PS files.
        · ß9: : Plotter: Preview using GhostScript implemented.
     · 16.4.1998:
        · ß10: :  Plotter:  New (adaptive)  handling  of  function's
          precision.
        · ß11: : Plotter: More flexible handling of axises.
     · 17.4.1998:
        · ß12: : Bugfix: Expressions  like 1 + 2x   caused a crash.
          Reported by ??.
     · 18.4.1998:
        · ß13: New  internal  representation of  displayed  objects.
          Uses less code  and prepares  Laplace for  a possible  PPC
          port.
     · 19.4.1998:
        · ß14: Plotter: You can abort  a zoom operation by  pressing
          the spacebar while the left mouse button is pressed.
     · 20.4.1998:
        · ß15: Plotter: Fixed some problems with logarithmic scale.
        · ß16: Plotter: The  window is not  activated, if opened  by
          plot_open() . Suggested by Christoph Rickers.
        · ß17: Button  images  are  now  loaded  before  the  window
          contents are drawn. Looks  more professional according  to
          Christoph Rickers...
     · 29.4.1998:
        · ß18: Plotter: you can now change the fonts.
        · ß19: Prefs: Use listview instead of register.
        · ß20: About: New page Modules.
     · 9.5.1998:
        · ß21: Some modifications of the GUI (image buttons, etc.).
        · ß22: Reimplemented online help system.
     · 11.5.1998:
        · ß23: Uff, what a day. Once again, my address has  changed!
          Now it's
             Scheffelstraße 14
             69214 Eppelheim
             Germany
        · ß24: Bugfix:  Derivation of  a  ^ c,  c=const   was wrong
          (c*a ^  (c-1)   instead of  c*a  ^ (c-1)*derive  (a,x) ).
          Reported by Markus Mannevaara.
     · 16.5.1998:
        · ß25:  After   logically   splitting   Laplace   into   the
          mathmatical kernel and the graphical interface, these  two
          parts are now physically seperated into two programs  that
          communicate via messages. In theory the kernal can now  be
          compiled for and run on a  PPC while the GUI uses the  68k
          processor. If you  have a  PPC card,  you are  programming
          with the ppc-gcc and you would like to port the kernel  to
          PPC, please contact me!
     · 14.7.1998:
        · ß26:  Bugfix:  derivation  of  constants  (pi,  e)  caused
          Enforcer hit. Reported by Tommy Lindgren.
     · 15.7.1998:
        · ß27: Implemented  Line archive   and  Color archive    for
          easier line and color definition.
     · 30.7.1998:
        · ß28: Bugfix: custom MUI classes where disposed before  all
          MUI objects  where disposed,  which could  sometimes  lead
          into a crash at the exit of Laplace.
     · 29.9.1998:
             Finally it's out.


Notes:

    German documentation  is  still  incomplete.  It's  currently  a  wild
    mixture of german and english parts.
