Like all of the previous disks in our award-winning line of software libraries, the 1994 SUG CD emphasizes information sources (archives of useful textual information) and includes plug-and-play SPARC binaries for many useful libraries and programs. As in all previous years, wherever possible sources and help-files are also provided. (Order form included.
