This distribution contains a simple C program to generate
equipotential and effective gravity plots in the equatorial plane for
the 2-body Roche problem. This program was written in response to a
request on alt.sci.planetary, June 1995.

   README    -- this file
   roche.c   -- main source code (written in C)
   roche.sm  -- command file for the plotting package "sm"
   roche1.ps -- postscript plot of the equal mass case
   roche2.ps -- plot of a case with mass ratio 1/10

Please read the comments at the beginning of roche.c and roche.sm for
more information.

Also, I hope but do not guarantee that the physics is right!
