The following steps should be taken to install the MAPLE part of CHEVIE. (For the GAP part just get Release 3.4.4 of GAP. This contains the GAP part as share package. You only need to say 'RequirePackage("chevie");' in your GAP session to have access to them.) Requirements: - 6 MB disc space - UNIX operating system - MAPLE Release V.3 (Symbolic Computation Group, University of Waterloo), computer algebra systems 1.) Uncompress the file 'chevie3r1p1.tar.gz' by typing: 'gunzip chevie3r1p1.tar.gz'. 2.) 'cp' or 'mv' the file 'chevie3r1p1.tar' to the directory you wish to install CHEVIE in. 3.) Type 'tar xvf chevie3r1p1.tar'. This command creates the directory 'chevie3r1'. Make shure that everyone who wants to work with CHEVIE has access to it and to all of its sub-directories. 4.) Edit the file 'chevie3r1/bin/cheviem'.
