For many platforms, there is a comfortable window-based graphical user interface. But for OS/2, we made just a terminal version for a start. This may change with future releases if there is enough commercial demand for a full-featured graphics version, but there will definitely be no port of the graphics to OS/2 this year. Moreover, the OS/2 version of MuPAD is currently usupported. This means you get a free license for it. You may use it as you like, but there is no support, of course. You may also not re-distribute this version or refer to it in any software review without permission of SciFace. Further on SciFace reserves the right to withdraw this free license at any time in the future. Here is a short list of the capabilities of MuPAD: Mathematical Functionality: - Arithmetic: * exact integer and rational arithmetic * floating point arithmetic with arbitrary precision * complex and quaternion arithmetic - Transcendental functions - Expression manipulation - Solving - Calculus - Numerical computations - Set Theory - Linear Algebra - Linear optimization - Number Theory - Algebraic Structures - Polynomials The MuPAD language: - easy-to-learn programming language - Pascal-like syntax - imperative, functional and object-oriented programming - generation of TeX output Technical information specific to the OS/2 version can be found at: ftp://ftp.mupad.de/MuPAD/distrib/os2/COPYING For more information, visit our web site: http://www.sciface.com/ Email: General Information: info@sciface.com Product Distribution: distribution@sciface.com Bug Reports: bugs@sciface.com Phone: +49-5251-6407-51 Fax: +49-5251-6407-99 SciFace Software GmbH & Co.
