Has anyone used software similar to MathCad on other than a PC? (MathCad is a PC package which, for example, performs calculations, does array math such as FFT's, and has graphics (2- and 3-D) capabilities.) I have used it in the past on a PC, but don't have access to one now. I understand ILB is available on workstations, but I don't need anything that powerful, and am already comfortable with MathCad. I'd like to have these capabilities on VMS or UNIX. Any suggestions?

Full symbolic manipulation, numeric, plotting, the works. Supports a nice notebook for organizing your stuff. Currently it runs on Sun and Mac and a coupla others. Retails for $795. f o d d e r -- Jeffrey A.
