Some people have been unable to print the postscript version of the VHDL Cookbook, as they don't have the Laser Prep header that's needed. alind@eng.clemson.edu (Alex Lind) has sent me revised postscript files with the header attached, and I have updated the files in the ftp area with them. (Thanks to Alex.) The files are available by anonymous ftp from chook.adelaide.edu.au (129.127.8.8) in directory pub/VHDL-Cookbook. Please get and read the README for info and instructions. I have inluded it below. Alternatively, if you still can't get/browse/print the files, you can get a hardcopy version from me. Please mail a check or postal order for $AUS25.00, and I'll forward a copy by air-mail. PA ---------------------------------------------------------------- Peter J. Ashenden Dept.

Ashenden This is a set of notes I put together for my Computer Architecture class. Students had a project in which they had to model a microprocessor architecture of their choice. They used these notes to learn VHDL. Not all of the language is covered (about 95%). You may use this booklet for your own personal learning purposes. You may not use it for profit (eg, selling copies of it, using it in a course for which people pay, etc). If you want to make use of it beyond these conditions, contact me and we can come to some arrangement. I will be revising the course this year, and if I get time, I expect to revise the booklet as well. I've learnt a fair bit more about the practicalities of using VHDL since I wrote the booklet. Stay tuned for info on a revised edition. VHDL-Cookbook.cpt.Hqx is a binhex'ed compactor archive. Get the file, copy it to your Mac, use binhex 4.0 to extract VHDL-Cookbook.cpt, then launch VHDL-Cookbook.cpt. It will self-extract, producing a set of Microsoft Word files. VHDL-Cookbook.ps.tar.Z is a compressed tar archive containing postscript files with the Apple Laser Prep kindly prepended by alind@eng.clemson.edu (Alex Lind). Get the archive using binary mode. The original postscript was generated from the Microsoft Word documents. Comments and suggestions welcome. Peter Ashenden <petera@cs.adelaide.edu.au> Dept.
