=============================================================================== HELP FOR: grtensor() =============================================================================== - The grtensor() command displays the version of GRTensorII and loads any grtensor.ini files found in the directories indicated by MapleV's libname variable. - A grtensor.ini file consists of any number of GRTensorII or MapleV commands. For instance, it can be used to automatically load particular libraries or set global defaults such as the groption() variables. MAPLEV.3: Full online help for all GRTensorII commands is available by loading the library griihelp. To load this library automatically, add the line readlib ( griihelp ): to the grtensor.ini file. [To save memory, these help pages are not loaded by default with GRTensorII.] Ensure that the file griihelp.m is in the path specified by the MapleV libname variable. MAPLEV.4 Online help is available by placing the file maple.hdb (provided with the GRTensorII distribution) in the path specified by the libname variable. Unfortunately, the new format of MapleV.4 help screens do not allow ASCII files to be displayed in a fixed width font, although existing MapleV.3 help pages are entirely in this format. The consequence is that the alignment of columns will be distorted in tables and also in the examples produced using ASCII versions of MapleV. Since we do not have the resources to maintain multiple sets of help screens and we do not wish to strand users of MapleV.3 or non-windowed MapleV, this will remain a problem for versions of MapleV.4 that are not backward compatible with ASCII MapleV.3-style help screens. The ASCII source for the GRTensorII help screens is available from the World Wide Web page referenced below. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About GRTensorII GRTensorII is a package developed by Peter Musgrave, Denis Pollney and Kayll Lake, of Queen's University at Kingston, Ontario, Canada.
