As several people have asked me how to get the Ptolemy software on
tape, I think a posting to the net is necessary. Here is the
complete description of how to get Ptolemy on tape or via FTP.
Note that even if you receive the program via FTP, you may still
want to order a copy of the printed documentation (see below).

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ptolemy is available *without* support for no charge to organizations
on the Internet via FTP. The procedure for obtaining Ptolemy via FTP
is as follows:
1. FTP to Internet host "forney.Berkeley.EDU"
(128.32.240.77). Login as "anonymous"; no password is
needed. Get the shell archive "ptolemy-license.shar".
2. The "ptolemy-license.shar" file is a bundle of several
different files and includes instructions on how to
unbundle them. Follow these instructions and sign and
return the enclosed license agreements.
3. When we receive your signed license agreements, we will
contact you to give you an account and password that
will allow you to FTP the actual Ptolemy software.
Organizations without Internet FTP capability can obtain Ptolemy
without support from:
EECS/ERL Industrial Liaison Program Office
Software Distribution
479 Cory Hall
University of California, Berkeley
Berkeley, CA 94720
Attn: Cindy Manly-Fields
(510) 643-6687
This includes printed documentation, including installation
instructions, a user's guide, and manual pages. A handling fee (on
the order of $250) will be charged.
Documentation:
The printed documentation is available separately for ~$30.00 from
the ILP office at the above address. Please contact them for the
exact fee. Even users who receive Ptolemy via FTP should consider
ordering the printed documentation as the bound, double-sided volume
is worth the small fee.
