Funny you should ask, as in today's mail I received a new issue of
PIXEL, issue Nov/Dec 1990 (hmm, are they late publishing or is the
usnail way late; probably shouldn't ask. ;-) ), which contains an
article by Mark VandeWettering, entitled "apE 2.0":
"apE is a general-purpose scientific visualization program that
is designed to be not only portable but extendable... builds new
visualization applications by using a visual data-flow programming
language."
See the magazine for a good description of the software.

Gee, someone receives copies of this magazine besides me ;-) Unfortunately, you are right, the publishing date slipped quite a bit. According to my editor, we are at the mercy of the submissions that we solicit, and we try to keep the quality of the magazine up, so we had to wait this issue longer than I would have liked. I must give special thanks for all the apE crew who hurried software to us, only to have the issue held up for other reasons. Sorry guys! If you are interested in apE, this article + another one in IEEE CG&A by Scott Dyer (can't recall the date, but within the past year) will serve as a pretty good introduction. The article also includes ordering information and some cute pictures that I did with apE during my testing period. Some people in the lab I work in are really enthused about it (and they are real science types) and now that the real documentation is available it is even better. Give it a shot. Revolutionize the world of science. Mark VandeWettering Mark VandeWettering markv@acm.princeton.edu
