I need a little help in getting Ptolemy 0,4  going on 
a personal DECstation 5000.  I've followed the installation
instructions and have ended up with a whole buncch of executables.
When I type "pigi" to try it out I get an error message that the 
command "vem" can't be found.  When I look around for vem I 
find that unpacking the tar files has left me with the following

/users/ptolemy/bin.mips/vem@ -> ../octtools/bin.mips/vem

and unfortunaly ../octtools/bin.mips/vem doesn't exist.

Can someone help me with this problem please ?

If anyone does have the time, then maybe they could also help me with
the following

1. An example of what the added line to the .rhosts file should
look like.

2.  What is the Almagest ?

3.  How do you print something out from the documentation.  Do you go 
to one of the documentation subdirectories and type make ?

If anyone can take the time to help me I'd really appreciate it.
