A program called Primer is available via anonymous ftp from 
genome.wi.edu, thats at the Whitehead Institute in Cambridge, Mass. What 
is available via ftp is the C source which runs nicely under Unix or VMS. 

Macintosh, IBM-PC, and Sun executibles are available. Note the Macintosh
version is not a Macintosh interface, rather its just a TTY window on the 
Macintosh and looks just like the Unix, PC, or VMS versions. A complete 
manual is also available.

For all the information retrieve the readme.asc file from the 
/distribution/primer.0.4 directory. This file tells all about whats 
available and how to get a Macintosh copy. This is not public domain and 
there is a license to be signed, no commercial use is allowed. See the 
readme.asc file for details.
