The ISIS figures were done using dandelions under an extinct graphics
package that doesn't product postscript output.  A high priority is
to have my secretary redo these with something more reasonable.  However,
we are having trouble identifying a suitable package:
  1) Must run on SUN's under X11
  2) Must not cost a fortune
  3) Produces postscript output so we can include it into our latex 

BTW, I just learned that the ISIS documentation some people ordered 
was misprinted with the figures missing.  They should have been
pasted in when it went to the printer and instead seem to have been
left out and then stuck in at the last minute, unbound.

Sorry about this.  Our secretary had a serious health problem and the
new person just needs little time to setlle into the job.
