gap-3.4.2.README
April 1996

gap-3.4.2.NIHS.bs.tar.gz contains a rather large Installer.app package which
includes a quad-FAT gap binary, documentation, and source code.  After 
packaging this, I discovered that v3.4.3 exists, so I'll have to get working
on the newer version.  For now, enjoy this.

Excerpt from the README

    GAP  is  a  system  for computational  discrete  algebra,  which we  have
    developed  with  particular  emphasis on  computational group theory, but             
    which has already proved useful also in  other areas.  The name GAP is an         
    acronym for *Groups, Algorithms, and Programming*.  This  (long) document       
    announces the availability of GAP version 3 release 4, GAP 3.4 for short.
    It is an *advertisement* for GAP, but not a *commercial*, since  we  give       
    GAP away for free.
