    This is the initial release of the 4D wireframe viewer that I wrote for
my master's thesis, "Four-Space Visualization of 4D Objects", in May 1991.
The thesis is available via anonymous FTP (try kpc.com), usually under the
name "holl91".

    Please send me e-mail to let me know if you're using this package so
I can add you to my mailing list.  This way I can send out patches and
upgrades and be fairly confident that the folks that need them will get
them.  I'll also try to pass along any useful tips or comments that I
receive.

    This release should include the following files:

        README          // This File
        copyright       // Copyright Notice
        wire4.doc       // User's Manual for wire4
        psplot.doc      // User's Manual for psplot
        makefile        // Unix Make File
        wire4.h         // wire4 Main Header File
        vector.h        // Header File for Vector Operations
        psplot.c        // Source for psplot
        strcmpic.c      // Case-Insensitive String Comparison
        v3cross.c       // 3D Vector Cross Product
        v4cross.c       // 4D Vector Cross Product
        w4_display.c    // Graphics Display Functions
        w4_geometry.c   // 4D Geometry Functions
        w4_main.c       // Main wire4 File
        w4_parse.c      // wire4 Input File Parsing Functions
        axes.w4         // wire4 Input Files...
        cube.w4
        cube3d.w4
        curve1.w4
        curve2.w4
        curve3.w4
        dual.w4
        frustum.w4

    You will probably need to tweak the makefile to get it to run on
your platform.  I've tried to make this as straightforward as possible,
but let me know if you have problems.  This release should run on
platforms that support the GL language.

    Also available for release via anonymous FTP is my 4D raytracing
program.  Ray4 runs on any platform that supports C and floating point,
but currently the only display programs available are for the Amiga, SGI
platforms, and Sun rasterfiles.

    Finally, I'd like to acknowledge and thank the following folks who
volunteered to beta-test this software for me:

        Greg Aharonian
        Brian Carney
        Mark Ferneau
        Marty Ryan
