Subject: [ANN] Data Plotting Library DISLIN 8.2
Reply-To: michels@linmpi.mpg.de

I am pleased to announce version 8.2 of the data plotting software
DISLIN.

DISLIN is a high-level and easy to use plotting library for
displaying data as curves, bar graphs, pie charts, 3D-colour plots,
surfaces, contours and maps. Several output formats are supported
such as X11, VGA, PostScript, PDF, CGM, WMF, HPGL, TIFF, PNG, BMP
and SVG.

The software is available for several C, Fortran 77 and Fortran 90
compilers. Plotting extensions for the interpreting languages Perl,
Python and Java are also supported for the most operating systems.

DISLIN distributions and manuals in PDF, PostScript and HTML format are
available from the DISLIN Home Page

     http://www.dislin.de

and via FTP from the server

     ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/grafik/dislin

Subject: Advanced Bash Scripting Guide: version 2.5 update

Announcing the version 2.5 release of the "Advanced Bash Scripting Guide."
This e-book tutorial and reference is the equivalent of a 542-page print book.
With 288 illustrative examples, the book covers virtually every aspect of
scripting.

This e-book now contains printable reference cards, just like commercially
available computer tutorials.


The author invites comparisons with *any* of the commercially printed books on
shell scripting. His aim was to write "best of category" documentation.

          "This  tutorial  assumes  no previous knowledge of
           scripting or programming, but progresses rapidly  toward an
           intermediate/advanced level of instruction ...all the while
           sneaking in little snippets of UNIX wisdom and lore. It serves
           as a textbook, a manual for self-study, and  a  reference
           and source of knowledge on shell scripting techniques. The
           exercises and heavily-commented  examples invite active reader
           participation, under the premise that the only way to really
           learn scripting is to write scripts."
                -- from the Introduction


License: Open Publication License
         This means the book is *free* and freely distributable.
