	This "zoo" is a broad collection of "animals" that have little to
do with one another, but may prove useful for people working in image
processing and communications. The software is distributed with the usual
boring caveat that we don't support the software and you use it at your
own risk. To our knowledge all of the material is correct and should work
on any VMS 2.3 system. If there are errors, or if you come up with
improvements, please contact us.
 Among the items contained are:
.LIST
.LE;HUFFMAN
 A routine to create Huffman code sequences
from a probabilty array.
.LE;HARD
 A program to create quasi-gray scale images on
a Printronix printer.
.LE;Matrix Library
 A set of matrix manipulation routines
(May have bugs).
.LE;DR-11c Driver
 An incredibly simple scheme for doing I/O
to a cheap DR-11/c. This lets you send and
receive 16 bits at a 3 to 4 microsecond rate.
This sucker is fantastic and will let you do cheap
real time audio. Some example programs are included.
Be VERY careful concerning the setting of
the virtual addresses involved.
We have included several fortran programs that use 
The drio routine. these are sine,ramp,and chirp.
To obtain the virtual address used in the DRIO
routine use SDA on the device. Use the sysgen
CONNECT statement to associate a vector and CSR
with the device name. You need change mode to
kernal privilege to use the address in DRIO.
.LE;QUEUE
 A queuing theory modeler with graphics.
.LE;WEIGHT
 A program to plot weight loss with statistics
(Uses an included VT-100 fake-o graphics routine).
.LE;DIGITS
 A program to take data from a Hewlett Packard
plotter. (HP 7580 Big Bertha)
.LE;BUBBLE
 A bubble sort routine.
.LE;RPN
 A program submitted by DR. William Johnson
of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. This program 
will simulate an HP-67 RPN calculator on the 
VAX with a VT-100.
.END LIST
	There should be a COM file for each major program to compile
and link.  Each COM file will also purge back for that program so modify
this if you want to keep old versions around.

			Good Luck !
