AVW48 Version 0.1
An algebraic object visualization library for the hp48
(c) 1994 by Claude-Nicolas Fiechter

AVW48 provides three commands to convert algebraic objects (symbolic
expressions, symbolic matrices and symbolic vectors) into graphic
objects and to display them in a "pretty" way, similar to that of the
calculator's EquationWriter.

Advantages of AVW48 over the HP48's EquationWriter include:

* Displays symbolic matrices and symbolic vectors (represented by
  lists of symbolics) in a nice, easily readable form;

* Can display algebraic objects in three different sizes (using small,
  medium or large base characters);

* Approximately 10 times faster than EquationWriter;

* Does not introduce superfluous parentheses in displayed expressions;

* The conversion to GROB does not affect the display (so it can be
  used in a user program without altering the current display).

Version 0.1 of AVW48 is a GiftWare release. It is given here in
uuencoded form.

Try it.
