                    147: 
                    148: by Richard Stallman
                    149: 
                    150: The Sun Users Group Deutschland and ASCII Corporation (Japan) have added
                    151: donations to the FSF to the price of their next CD-ROM of GNU software.
                    152: Potential purchasers will know precisely how much of the price is for the FSF
                    153: and how much is for the redistributor.
                    154: 
                    155: Austin Code Works, a redistributor of free software, is supporting free
                    156: software development by giving the FSF 20% of the selling price for the GNU
                    157: software packages they produce and sell.  The producers of the SNOW 2.1 CD
                    158: added the words "Includes $5 donation to the FSF" to the front of their CD.
                    159: Walnut Creek CDROM and Info Magic, two more free software redistributors, are
                    160: also giving us a percentage of their selling price.  CQ Publishing made a
                    161: large donation from the sales of their book about GAWK in Japanese.
                    162: 
                    163: In the long run, the success of free software depends on how much new free
                    164: software people develop.  Free software distribution offers an opportunity to
                    165: raise funds for such development in an ethical way.  These redistributors
                    166: have made use of the opportunity.  Many others let it go to waste.
                    167: 
                    168: You can help promote free software development by convincing for-a-fee
                    169: redistributors to contribute--either by doing development themselves, or by
                    170: donating to development organizations (the FSF and others).
                    171: 
                    172: The way to convince distributors to contribute is to demand and expect this
                    173: of them.  This means choosing among distributors partly by how much they give
                    174: to free software development.  Then you can show distributors they must
                    175: compete to be the one who gives the most.
                    176: 
                    177: To make this work, you must insist on numbers that you can compare, such as,
                    178: "We will give ten dollars to the Foobar project for each disk sold." A vague
                    179: commitment, such as "A portion of the profits is donated," doesn't give you a
                    180: basis for comparison.  Even a precise fraction "of the profits from this
                    181: disk" is not very meaningful, since creative accounting and unrelated
                    182: business decisions can greatly alter what fraction of the sales price counts
                    183: as profit.
                    184: 
                    185: Also, press developers for firm information about what kind of development
                    186: they do or support.  Some kinds make much more long-term difference than
                    187: others.         For example, maintaining a separate version of a GNU program
                    188: contributes very little; maintaining a program on behalf of the GNU Project
                    189: contributes much.  Easy new ports contribute little, since someone else would
                    190: surely do them; difficult ports such as adding a new CPU to the GNU compiler
                    191: contribute more; major new features and programs contribute the most.
                    192: 
                    193: By establishing the idea that supporting further development is "the proper
                    194: thing to do" when distributing free software for a fee, we can assure a
                    195: steady flow of resources for making more free software.

                    201: 
                    202: When choosing a free software business, ask those you are considering how
                    203: much they do to assist free software development, e.g., by contributing money
                    204: to free software development or by writing free software improvements
                    205: themselves for general use.  By basing your decision partially on this
                    206: factor, you can help encourage those who profit from free software to
                    207: contribute to its growth.
                    208: 
                    209: These free software support companies regularly donate a part of their income
                    210: to the Free Software Foundation to support the development of new GNU
                    211: programs.  Listing them here is our way of thanking them.  Wingnut has made a
                    212: pledge to donate 10% of their income to the FSF, and has also purchased
                    213: several Deluxe Distribution packages in Japan. (Wingnut is SRA's special GNU

                    229: 
                    230: GNU is dedicated to having quality, easy-to-use online and printed
                    231: documentation. GNU manuals are intended to explain underlying concepts,
                    232: describe how to use all the features of each program, and give examples of
                    233: command use.  GNU manuals are distributed as Texinfo source files, which
                    234: yield both typeset hardcopy via the TeX document formatting system, and online
                    235: hypertext display via the menu-driven Info system.  Source for these manuals
                    236: comes with our software; here we list the manuals that we publish as printed
                    237: books as well; see the *note Free Software Foundation Order Form::..
                    238: 
                    239: Most GNU manuals are bound as soft cover books with "lay-flat" bindings.
                    240: This allows you to open them so they lie flat on a table without creasing the
                    241: binding.  These books have an inner cloth spine and an outer cardboard cover
                    242: that will not break or crease as an ordinary paperback will.  Currently, the
                    243: `GDB', `Emacs', `Emacs Lisp Reference', `GAWK', `Make', `Bison', and `Texinfo'
                    244: manuals have this binding.  The other GNU manuals also lie flat when opened,
                    245: using a GBC or Wire-O binding. All of our manuals are 7in by 9.25in except
                    246: the 8.5in by 11in `Calc' manual.

                    262: is an elementary introduction to programming in Emacs Lisp.  It is written
                    263: for people who are not necessarily interested in programming, but who do want
                    264: to customize or extend their computing environment.   It tells how to write
                    265: programs that find files; switchbuffers; use searches, conditionals, loops,
                    266: and recursion; how to write Emacs initialization files; and how to run the
                    267: Emacs Lisp debuggers.  If you read the text in GNU Emacs under Info mode, you

                    281: program used to rebuild parts of other programs.  The manual tells how to
                    282: write "makefiles", which specify how a program is to be compiled and how its
                    283: files depend on each other.  Included are an introductory chapter for novice
                    284: users and a section about automatically generated dependencies.
                    285: 
                    286: The `Flex Manual' (Edition 1.03 for Version 2.3.7) teaches you to write a

                    310: of interrogating a terminal description.  This manual is primarily for
                    311: programmers.
                    312: 
                    313: The `C Library Reference Manual' (Edition 0.06 for Version 1.09) describes
                    314: most of the facilities of the GNU C library, including both what Unix calls
                    315: "library functions" and "system calls."         We are doing limited copier runs of

                    404: to compile them.  It uses the `Autoconf' program (see item below).  The goal
                    405: is to have all GNU software support the same alternatives for naming machine
                    406: and system types.   When the GNU system is complete it will be possible to
                    407: configure and build the entire system at once, eliminating the need to
                    408: separately configure each individual package.  The configuration scheme lets
                    409: you specify both the host and target system to build cross-compilation tools.

                    428:      systems without manual user intervention. Autoconf creates a script for
                    429:      a package from a template file which lists the operating system features
                    430:      which the package can use, in the form of `m4' macro calls.  Autoconf
                    431:      requires GNU `m4' to operate, but the resulting configure scripts it
                    432:      generates do not.
                    433:

                    439:      `sh' and offers many extensions found in `csh' and `ksh'. BASH has job
                    440:      control, `csh'-style command history, and command-line editing (with
                    441:      Emacs and `vi' modes built-in, and the ability to rebind keys) via the
                    442:      readline library. BASH conforms to the POSIX 1003.2 shell specification.
                    443: 
                    444:    * `bc'        (DjgppD, DosCD, SrcCD, UtilT)
                    445: 
                    446:      `bc' is an interactive algebraic language with arbitrary precision
                    447:      numbers.  GNU `bc' follows the POSIX.2-1992 standard, with several
                    448:      extensions including multi-character variable names, an `else'
                    449:      statement, and full Boolean expressions.  The RPN calculator `dc' is now
                    450:      distributed as part of the same package, but GNU `bc' is not implemented
                    451:      as a `dc' preprocessor.
                    452: 
                    453:    * BFD        (BinCD, DjggpD, DosCD, LangT, SrcCD)
                    454: 
                    455:      The Binary File Descriptor library allows a program which operates on
                    456:      object files (e.g., `ld' or GDB) to support many different formats in a
                    457:      clean way.         BFD provides a portable interface, so that only BFD needs to
                    458:      know the details of a particular format.  One result is that all
                    459:      programs using BFD will support formats such as a.out, COFF, and ELF.
                    460:      BFD comes with source for Texinfo documentation (not yet published on
                    461:      paper).   Presently BFD is not distributed separately; it is included
                    462:      with packages that use it.
                    463: 
                    464:    * Binutils        (BinCD, DjgppD, DosCD, LangT, SrcCD)
                    465: 
                    466:      Binutils includes the programs: `ar', `c++filt', `demangle', `gas',

                    468:      `strings', and `strip'.
                    469: 
                    470:      Binutils Version 2 uses the BFD library.  The GNU linker `ld' emits
                    471:      source-line numbered error messages for multiply-defined symbols and
                    472:      undefined references.  It interprets a superset of the AT&T Linker
                    473:      Command Language, which gives general control over where segments are
                    474:      placed in memory. `nlmconv' converts object files into Novell NetWare
                    475:      Loadable Modules. `objdump' can disassemble code for a29k, ALPHA,
                    476:      H8/300, H8/500, HP-PA, i386, i960, m68k, m88k, MIPS, SH, SPARC, & Z8000
                    477:      processors, and can display other data (e.g., symbols & relocations)
                    478:      from any file format understood by BFD.
                    479: 
                    480:    * Bison        (BinCD, DjgppD, DosCD, LangT, SrcCD, VMSCompT)
                    481: 
                    482:      Bison is an upwardly compatible replacement for the parser generator
                    483:      `yacc'.  Texinfo source for the `Bison Manual' and reference card are
                    484:      included. *Note Documentation::.
                    485: 
                    486:      We recently decided to change the policy for using the parsers that
                    487:      Bison generates.  It is now permitted to use Bison-generated parsers in
                    488:      non-free programs.         *Note GNUs Flashes::.
                    489: 
                    490:    * GNU C Library        (BinCD, LangT, SrcCD)
                    491: 
                    492:      The GNU C library supports ANSI C-1989, POSIX 1003.1-1990 and most of the
                    493:      functions in POSIX 1003.2-1992.  It is upwardly compatible with 4.4BSD
                    494:      and includes many System V functions, plus GNU extensions.
                    495: 
                    496:      The C Library will perform many functions of the Unix system calls in
                    497:      the Hurd. Mike Haertel has written a fast `malloc' which wastes less
                    498:      memory than the old GNU version.  The GNU regular-expression functions
                    499:      (`regex' and `rx') now nearly conform to the POSIX 1003.2 standard.
                    500: 
                    501:      GNU `stdio' lets you define new kinds of streams, just by writing a few
                    502:      C functions.  The `fmemopen' function uses this to open a stream on a
                    503:      string, which can grow as necessary.  You can define your own `printf'
                    504:      formats to use a C function you have written.  For example, you can
                    505:      safely use format strings from user input to implement a `printf'-like
                    506:      function for another programming language.         Extended `getopt' functions
                    507:      are already used to parse options, including long options, in many GNU
                    508:      utilities.
                    509: 
                    510:      The C Library runs on Sun-3 (SunOS 4.1), Sun-4 (SunOS 4.1 or Solaris 2),
                    511:      HP 9000/300 (4.3BSD), SONY News 800 (NewsOS 3 or 4), MIPS DECstation

                    529: 
                    530:      Calc (written by Dave Gillespie in Emacs Lisp) is an extensible, advanced
                    531:      desk calculator & mathematical tool that runs as part of GNU Emacs.  You
                    532:      can use Calc just as a simple four-function calculator, but it has many

                    541: 
                    542:      GNU Chess lets the computer play a full game of chess with you.  It runs
                    543:      on most platforms & has dumb terminal, "curses" & X terminal interfaces.
                    544:      The X terminal interface is based on the `xboard' program.
                    545:      m{No Value For "ergegrafkludge"} GNU Chess implements many specialized
                    546:      features including the null move heuristic, a hash table with aging, the

                    557: 
                    558:      CLISP is a Common Lisp implementation by Bruno Haible and Michael Stoll.
                    559:      It mostly supports the Lisp described by `Common LISP: The Language (2nd
                    560:      edition)' and the ANSI Common Lisp standard.  CLISP includes an
                    561:      interpreter, a byte-compiler, a large subset of CLOS, a foreign language
                    562:      interface and, for some machines, a screen editor.         The user interface
                    563:      language (English, German, French) is chooseable at run time.  Major
                    564:      packages that run in CLISP include CLX & Garnet.  CLISP needs only 2 MB
                    565:      of memory & runs on many microcomputers (including MS-DOS systems, OS/2,
                    566:      the Atari ST, Amiga 500-4000, Acorn RISC PC) & Unix-like systems
                    567:      (GNU/Linux, Sun4, SVR4, SGI, HP-UX, DEC Alpha, NeXTstep & others).
                    568: 
                    569:    * GNU Common Lisp        (LspEmcT, SrcCD)
                    570: 
                    571:      GNU Common Lisp (GCL) has a compiler and interpreter for Common Lisp.  It
                    572:      used to be known as Kyoto Common Lisp.  It is very portable and extremely
                    573:      efficient on a wide class of applications.         It compares favorably in
                    574:      performance with commercial Lisps on several large theorem-prover and
                    575:      symbolic algebra systems. It supports the CLtL1 specification but is
                    576:      moving towards the proposed ANSI definition.   GCL compiles to C and
                    577:      then uses the native optimizing C compilers (e.g., GCC).  A function
                    578:      with a fixed number of args and one value turns into a C function of the
                    579:      same number of args, returning one value, so GCL is maximally efficient
                    580:      on such calls.  It has a conservative garbage collector which allows
                    581:      great freedom for the C compiler to put Lisp values in arbitrary
                    582:      registers.         It has a source level Lisp debugger for interpreted code,
                    583:      with display of source code in an Emacs window.  Ita profiling tools
                    584:      (based on the C profiling tools) count function calls and the time spent
                    585:      in each function. CLX works with GCL.
                    586: 
                    587:      There is now a builtin interface with the TK widget system.  It runs in
                    588:      a separate process so that users may monitor progress on lisp
                    589:      computations, or interact with running computations via a windowing

                    591: 
                    592:      There is also an Xlib interface via C (xgcl-2).  PCL runs with GCL (see
                    593:      PCL item later in this article).  *Note Forthcoming GNUs::, for plans for
                    594:      about GCL, or for recent developments.   GCL version 2.0 is released

                    598: 
                    599:      `cpio' is an alternative archive program with all the features of SVR4

                    624:      Diffutils package contains `diff', `diff3', `sdiff', and `cmp'.
                    625: 
                    626:      Recent Diffutils improvements include more consistent handling of

                    862:      possible, G++ is kept compatible with the evolving draft ANSI standard,
                    863:      but not with `cfront' (AT&T's compiler), which has been diverging from
                    864:      ANSI.
                    865: 
                    866:      The GNU C Compiler is a fairly portable optimizing compiler which

                   1004:      for multi-page files with an X11 user interface.  Ghostview and
                   1005:      Ghostscript function as two cooperating programs; Ghostview creates a
                   1006:      viewing window and Ghostscript draws in it.

                   1017:      Ada Translator) is a bug-tracking system. It is based upon the paradigm
                   1018:      of a central site or organization which receives problem reports and
                   1019:      negotiates their resolution by electronic mail.  Although it has been
                   1020:      used primarily as a software bug-tracking system so far, it is
                   1021:      sufficiently generalized so that it could be used for handling system
                   1022:      administration issues, project management or any number of other
                   1023:      applications.

                   1028:      expressions and data.  It handles both curves (2 dimensions) and surfaces
                   1029:      (3 dimensions).  Curiously, the program was neither written nor named for
                   1030:      the GNU Project; the name is a coincidence.  Various GNU programs use
                   1031:      `gnuplot' to produce graphical output.
                   1032:

                   1054: 
                   1055:      This package has GNU `grep', `egrep', and `fgrep' which find lines that
                   1056:      match inputed patterns.  They are much faster than the traditional Unix
                   1057:      versions.

                   1061:      Groff is a document formatting system based on an implementation of
                   1062:      device-independent troff, which also includes implementations of `eqn',
                   1063:      `nroff', `pic', `refer', `tbl', `troff', and the `man', `ms', and `mm'
                   1064:      macros, as well as drivers for Postscript, TeX `dvi' format, and
                   1065:      typewriter-like devices.
                   1066: 
                   1067:      Groff's `mm' macro package is almost compatible with the DWB `mm' macros
                   1068:      and has several extensions.  Also included is a modified version of the
                   1069:      Berkeley `me' macros and an enhanced version of the X11 `xditview'
                   1070:      previewer.         Written in C++, these programs can be compiled with GNU C++
                   1071:      Version 2.5 or later.  A driver for the LaserJet 4 series of printers is

                   1074:      Groff users are encouraged to contribute enhancements.  Most needed are
                   1075:      complete Texinfo documentation, a `grap' emulation (a `pic' preprocessor
                   1076:      for typesetting graphs), a page-makeup postprocessor similar to `pm'
                   1077:      (see `Computing Systems', Vol. 2, No. 2; ask `[email protected]' how to
                   1078:      get a copy) and an ASCII output class for `pic' so that `pic' can be
                   1079:      integrated with Texinfo.  Questions and bug reports from users who have
                   1080:      read the documentation provided with groff can be sent to

                   1086:      We have software on our tapes and FTP sites to uncompress these files.
                   1087:      Due to patent troubles with `compress', we use another compression
                   1088:      program, `gzip'.  (Such prohibitions on software development are fought
                   1089:      by the League for Programming Freedom, *note What Is the LPF::., for
                   1090:      details.) `gzip' can expand LZW-compressed files but uses another,
                   1091:      unpatented algorithm for compression which generally produces better
                   1092:      results.  It also expands files compressed with System V's `pack'
                   1093:      program.

                   1098:      allows non-programmers to use a classic computer science tool which would
                   1099:      otherwise be unavailable to them. Because it is protected by the GNU
                   1100:      General Public License, users are free to share and change it.
                   1101: 
                   1102:      Like any truly useful program, `hello' contains a built-in mail reader.

                   1126:      other formats are available as options.  It is also possible to define
                   1127:      your own format.  GNU `indent' is more robust and provides more
                   1128:      functionality than other versions, e.g., it handles C++ comments.

                   2635: Scheme is a simplified, lexically-scoped dialect of Lisp.  It was designed at
                   2636: MIT and other universities to teach students the art of programming, and to
                   2637: research new parallel programming constructs and compilation techniques.
                   2638: 
                   2639: This tape now contains MIT Scheme 7.3, which conforms to the "Revised^4
                   2640: Report On the Algorithmic Language Scheme" (MIT AI Lab Memo 848b), for which
                   2641: TeX source is included.         It is written partly in C, but is presently hard to
                   2642: bootstrap.  Binaries that can be used to bootstrap Scheme are available for:

                   2666: contributed clients.  We call this the "required" X tape since it is
                   2667: necessary for running X or running GNU Emacs under X.  The second, "optional"
                   2668: tape contains contributed libraries and other toolkits, the Andrew User

                   2684: Group at the University of California at Berkeley.  It has most of the BSD
                   2685: software system, except for a few files that remain proprietary.  It is much
                   2686: more complete than the previous "Net2" release.

                   2691: --------------------------------
                   2692: 
                   2693: We offer two VMS tapes.         One has just GNU Emacs 18.59 (none of the other
                   2694: software on the *Note Lisps/Emacs Tape::, is included).         The other has GCC
                   2695: 2.3.3, Bison 1.19 (to compile GCC), GAS 1.38 (to assemble GCC's output) and
                   2696: some library and include files (none of the other software on the *Note
                   2697: Languages Tape::, is included).         We are not aware of a GDB port for VMS.
                   2698: Both VMS tapes have DEC VAX executables from which you can bootstrap, as the
                   2699: DEC VMS C compiler cannot compile GCC. We do not have executables for DEC
                   2700: Alpha VMS systems.  Please do not ask us to devote effort to VMS support,
                   2701: because it is peripheral to the GNU Project.

                   2710:    * *Note MS-DOS CD-ROM::, expected in September 1995.

                   2712:    * *Note Debian GNU/Linux CD-ROM::, expected in late fall 1995.

                   2719: 
                   2720:    * *Note November 1993 Source Code CD-ROM::.
                   2721: 
                   2722: Our CD-ROMs are in ISO 9660 format & can be mounted as a read-only file
                   2723: system on most computers.  If your driver supports it you can mount each
                   2724: CD-ROM with "Rock Ridge" extensions (the MS-DOS CD-ROM is only in ISO 9660
                   2725: format) & it will look just like an ordinary Unix file system, rather than
                   2726: one full of truncated & otherwise mangled names that fit vanilla ISO 9660.
                   2727: 
                   2728: You can build most of the software without copying the sources off the CD.
                   2729: You only need enough disk space for object files and intermediate build
                   2730: targets.

                   2736: 
                   2737: If a business or organization is ultimately paying, the June 1995 Source CD
                   2738: costs $240.  It costs $60 if you, an individual, are paying out of your own
                   2739: pocket.         The December 1994 Compiler Tools Binaries CD-ROM costs $220 for a
                   2740: business or organization, and $55 for an individual.

                   2743: 
                   2744: What do the individual and company prices mean?
                   2745: 
                   2746: The software on our disk is free; anyone can copy it and anyone can run it.
                   2747: What we charge for is the physical disk and the service of distribution.
                   2748: 
                   2749: We charge two different prices depending on who is buying.  When a company or
                   2750: other organization buys the June 1995 Source CD-ROM, we charge $240.  When an
                   2751: individual buys the same disk, we charge just $60.
                   2752: 
                   2753: This distinction is not a matter of who is allowed to use the software.         In
                   2754: either case, once you have a copy, you can distribute as many copies as you
                   2755: wish, and there's no restriction on who can have or run them.  The price
                   2756: distinction is entirely a matter of what kind of entity pays for the CD.
                   2757: 
                   2758: You, the reader, are certainly an individual, not a company.  If you are
                   2759: buying a disk "in person", then you are probably doing so as an individual.
                   2760: But if you expect to be reimbursed by your employer, then the disk is really
                   2761: for the company; so please pay the company price and get reimbursed for it.
                   2762: We won't try to check up on you--we use the honor system--so please cooperate.
                   2763: 
                   2764: Buying CDs at the company price is very helpful for GNU; just 140 Source CDs
                   2765: at that price supports an FSF programmer or tech writer for a year.
                   2766: 
                   2767: 
                   2768: 
                   2769: Why is there an individual price?
                   2770: 
                   2771: In the past, our distribution tapes have been ordered mainly by companies.
                   2772: The CD at the price of $240 provides them with all of our software for a much
                   2773: lower price than they would previously have paid for six different tapes.  To
                   2774: lower the price more would cut into the FSF's funds very badly, and decrease
                   2775: the software development we can do.
                   2776: 
                   2777: However, for individuals, $240 is too high a price; hardly anyone could
                   2778: afford that.  So we decided to make CDs available to individuals at the lower
                   2779: price of $60.
                   2780: 
                   2781: 
                   2782: 
                   2783: Is there a maximum price?
                   2784: 
                   2785: Our stated prices are minimum prices.  Feel free to pay a higher price if you
                   2786: wish to support GNU development more.  The sky's the limit; we will accept as
                   2787: high a price as you can offer. Or simply give a donation (tax-deductible in
                   2788: the U.S.) to the Free Software Foundation, a tax-exempt public charity.

                   2811: as the kernel. (All the systems now available which use the Linux kernel are
                   2812: GNU/Linux systems.)
                   2813: 
                   2814: Debian is being developed by Ian Murdock and the Debian Association in

                   2827: 
                   2828: We are now offering a CD-ROM that contains executables for GNU compiler tools
                   2829: for some systems which lack a compiler.         This enables the people who use
                   2830: these systems to compile GNU and other free software without having to buy a
                   2831: proprietary compiler.  You can also use the GNU compilation system to compile
                   2832: your own C/C++/Objective-C programs.
                   2833: 
                   2834: We hope to have more systems on each update of this CD.         If you can help

                   3312: The Free Software Foundation has been asked repeatedly to create a package
                   3313: that provides executables for all of our software.  Normally we offer only
                   3314: sources.  In addition to providing binaries with the source code, the Deluxe
                   3315: Distribution includes a complete set of our printed manuals and reference
                   3316: cards.
                   3317: 
                   3318: The FSF Deluxe Distribution contains the binaries and sources to hundreds of
                   3319: different programs including GNU Emacs, the GNU C Compiler, the GNU Debugger,

                   3323: system.         We will send someone to your office to do the compilation, if we
                   3324: can't find a suitable machine close to us!  However, we can only compile the
                   3325: programs that already support your chosen machine and system  - porting is a
                   3326: separate matter (if you wish to commission a port, see the GNU Service
                   3327: Directory, details in *Note Free Software Support::).  Compiling all these
                   3328: programs take time; a Deluxe Distribution for an unusual machine will take
                   3329: longer to produce then one for a common machine.  Please contact the FSF
                   3330: office if you have any questions.
                   3331:
