Certainly! The best place to find more information about Geomview is
on the web at the following URL:

http://www.geom.umn.edu/software/download/geomview.htm

Also, here's a copy of the recent USENET announcement about Geomview:


			=====================
			Geomview, version 1.5
			=====================


The Geometry Center announces the availability of release 1.5 of
Geomview.  Geomview is an interactive viewer for 3-D geometric
objects.  It allows users to view and manipulate these objects via the
mouse, the keyboard, and through an interpreted command language.
This release includes versions for SGI (using GL graphics), NeXTStep
(requires NeXTStep version 3.0 or higher), and generic Xlib graphics.
Precompiled binaries are available for SGI, NeXT (m68k/intel/hppa),
Sun4, HP, Linux, IBM RS/6000 and DEC Alpha platforms.  The source code
is also available.  These distributions are all in the
pub/software/geomview directory for anonymous ftp from ftp.geom.umn.edu.
For more details, and for a list of changes since previous releases of
Geomview, see the README file in that same directory.

Geomview is part of an effort at the Geometry Center to provide
interactive 3D graphics which is well-suited for mathematics
visualization.  In addition, Geomview is extensible and can serve as a
general-purpose tool.  Its functionality can be extended in an almost
unlimited fashion by external modules or programs.

Sun OpenWindows Users: you must get the patch file
"geomview-1.5.0-sun4-patch1.tar.Z" in addition to the distribution
itself.  (OpenWindows will crash without this patch.)  See the README
file in pub/software/geomview for details.

If you want more information about Geomview without having
to download an entire distribution, point your Web browser at:

NOTE: The Geomview development team has very limited resources.  We
read all mail sent to our support address (software@geom.umn.edu), and
we try to act on reports of serious problems, but we may not be able
to respond to each message individually.
