Engst) Distribution: world Organization: Theory Center, Cornell University, Ithaca NY Lines: 79 Keywords: Sac Summary: Not too bad, but does anyone know of others? (longish) Well, here it is. A README file from the Sac (Ver. 3.0, I guess). This list is pretty good, but does anyone know of other software that either works or doesn't work? I'd like to keep compiling a list so that anyone who wishes to buy a Sac knows what will and what will not run. Also, didn't someone say something about Ver. 4.0 working with a color monitor? Hope this helps someone (other than me).
