README
README file for the `ExamplesForHomalg' GAP4 package
To get the newest version of this GAP 4 package download one of the
archive files
ExamplesForHomalg-x.x.tar.gz
ExamplesForHomalg-x.x.zoo
ExamplesForHomalg-x.x.tar.bz2
ExamplesForHomalg-x.x.zip
and unpack it using
gunzip ExamplesForHomalg-x.x.tar.gz; tar xvf ExamplesForHomalg-x.x.tar
respectively
unzoo -x ExamplesForHomalg-x.x.zoo
and so on.
(Note that if you use a browser like `netscape' for downloading the
archive file the `gunzip' step above may already be done by the browser,
although the name of your file may still have the misleading `.gz'
extension.)
Do this preferably (but not necessarily) inside the `pkg' subdirectory
of your GAP 4 installation. It creates a subdirectory called `ExamplesForHomalg'.
This completes the installation of the package.
Testing the package is possible by invoking
ReadPackage( "ExamplesForHomalg", "maketest.g" );
from within GAP.
You need the computer algebra system Singular (version >= 3-0-4)
to run the tests.
E-mail me if there are any questions, remarks, suggestions. Also, I
would like to hear about applications of this package.
