S is not public domain; you have to buy it from AT&T (or perhaps USL?). It is not expensive for universities (I paid $400 for old S in 1987, and $800 for new S in 1989). Douglas Bates at Wisconsin (bates@stat.wisc.edu) ported S to the NeXT last year. I don't know the status of the port nowadays. An inexpensive alternative to S is |STAT (pipe-stat) by Gary Perlman of Ohio State University (perlman@cis.ohio-state.edu). Last thing I knew, he was asking $20/$30 for the UNIX version, and $10 for the printed docs. I don't have a copy, so I can't post a review. The `sci.math.stat' newsgroup often contains postings on other statistical software. -- Pat Flynn - flynn@cse.nd.edu ('til 5/30) - flynn@eecs.wsu.edu (after then) Favorite error message: `Leaders not followed by proper glue.'
