The tutorial is now getting into shape. The newest version, including Alexander's chapter about "why on earth?" is now in CVS. Sorry, you still cannot built it yourself. But may I ask to have a quick look at it and comment what is missing or what you would expect from a text that teaches the basic things about GiNaC (and ideally write and contribute it)? For some of you I have put a printed version into the mail boxes, the online version in HTML is sitting at <http://wwwthep.physik.uni-mainz.de/GiNaC/tutorial/>. ¡Hasta la vista! -richy. -- Richard Kreckel <Richard.Kreckel@Uni-Mainz.DE> <http://wwwthep.physik.uni-mainz.de/~kreckel/>
