InterViews 3.1-beta2 is now available via anonymous ftp
from "interviews.stanford.edu" (IP address 36.22.0.175).
The distribution is in a compressed tar file named "pub/3.1-beta2.tar.Z"
(about 3.7Mb). The distribution is also ftp-able from sgi.com
in "graphics/interviews/3.1-beta2.tar.Z".
The README file in the top-level directory contains information
about how to build InterViews. The PostScript file iv/src/man/refman/cover.ps
contains general information about 3.1 (including a brief
discussion of differences from 3.0).
This beta contains fixes from the first beta, a few enhancements, and
a few more examples. The purpose of this beta is to eliminate any
remaining build problems before generating the official 3.1 snapshot.
Please send problems to interviews-bugs@interviews.stanford.edu.
