Subject: Getting the Yale Wavelet compression package

From: [email-masked] (Dave Mack)

Since posting a brief article about the Yale wavelet compression
package, I've received numerous e-mail requests from people who
haven't been able to find the package or get to the right machine
in yale.edu. Here's the original article describing the package
and how to get it:

Enclosed is a summary of informative replies to my network request for
references to wavelet theory and software.  

Thanks very much to all who replied.

Organization: Yale University Mathematics Department

		   PREPRINTS AND SOFTWARE
		are available by anonymous ftp 
			  from the
		 Yale Mathematics Department
		computer "ceres.math.yale.edu".

* INSTRUCTIONS				% comments

**Getting files by ftp.			% You must have Internet access.

	ftp ceres.math.yale.edu 	% OR   ftp 130.132.23.22
	anonymous			% this is your special id
	YOURNAME@YOURSCHOOL		% send real id as password
	cd pub/wavelets			% directory with wavelet preprints
	get acoustic.tex		% download "acoustic.tex"
	  ...				% ... and other single files.
	bye				% close the connection.

**Printing gotten files

[Detailed instructions omitted.  --Ed]

	Single documents (and papers with only a few simple diagrams) are
	stored as ASCII TeX files. 
	
* INDEX

pub/index/
	The file "list" contains abstracts of the papers in the rest
	of the archive, in the format used by IMP (Instant Math Preprints).

pub/papers/
	Directory of general preprints from the Yale Mathematics Department.

pub/wavelets/
	Directory of preprints on wavelets and wavelet packets
	from the Yale Mathematics Department Numerical Algorithms 
	Research Group.

pub/AMS/
	Contains a plain text version of the American Mathematical Society
	1990 Subject Classification.

pub/IMP/
	Contains 3 text files describing the Instant Math Preprints project.

	  coordinator_documents 
		Instructions to the person responsible for your site's
		computer archive;  the software needed and how to obtain it,
		how to submit abstracts, and who to contact when there are
		problems.

	  users_guide
		Instructions for obtaining abstracts and preprints
		electronically.

	  press_release
		A statement of IMP's purpose and benefits.

pub/software
  binaries/
    DOS/
    NeXT/
    Sun3/
    Sun4/
	Contains binaries for several wavelet packet analysis applications:
	   WPLab, a 1-dimensional phase-plane analysis tool for NeXTs;
	   wplib, an archive of Unix command-line tools for wavelet,
		wavelet packet, and local cosine analysis. Versions are
		available for several architectures;
	   WPL, a graphical DOS application for 1-dimensional signal analysis.

pub/TeX/
	Contains format definition files for TeX, Knuth's  computer
	typesetting system; AMSTeX 1.1, Spivak's  macro package for 
	mathematics; and LaTeX, Lamport's macro package for technical 
	documents.

	Descriptions:
		plain.tex	Basic macros for plain TeX.
		lplain.tex	Basic macros for plain LaTeX.
		amstex.tex	Basic macros for AMSTeX, no style sheet.
		amsppt.tex	AMS preprint style sheet.
		epsf.tex	Macros for including Encapsulated PostScript
					graphics files in TeX documents.

	For example, to typeset a file of AMSTeX commands in the AMS 
	preprint style (evident from the lines 
		\input amstex
		\documentstyle{amsppt}
	near the top of the file), you must have amstex.tex and amsppt.sty
	either in the TeX search path or in your current working directory.
	These are included in the standard University of Washington TeX
	distribution.  	Also, you must invoke "plain TeX" rather than
	a pre-loaded LaTeX.  Your site administrator can build such a plain 
	TeX with the file plain.tex.

* PROBLEMS?

**Make sure your computer disk has enough space to unpack the file you
	downloaded.
**See your local wizard.
**E-Mail a description of your troubles to [email-masked] 
	[Victor Wickerhauser].
