The former limitation +that an insertion must fit on the current line no more exists. + +For information on updates, see the file "changes.txt". + +---------------------------------------------------------------------- + Prof. Klaus Lagally + Institut fuer Formale Methoden der Informatik + Universitaet Stuttgart + Universitaetsstrasse 38 + D-70569 Stuttgart + GERMANY + + lagally@informatik.uni-stuttgart.de + FAX: +49 - 711 - 7816 370 +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- + Copyright (c) 1990 - 2003, Klaus Lagally +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- + + |
