# pragma ident "@(#)README	1.1 06/24/97 Polymer

This is version 1.0 of Polymer Visualization System.

It requires Tcl/Tk, Togl and OpenGL or Mesa. The system has been build
only on Sun SPARCs running Solaris 2.4 and 2.5.1 using Tcl7.6 and Tk4.2 and
Togl 1.2. Both Sun's OpenGL and Mesa 1.2.8 have been used. It also uses
the tiff lib from the netpbm package.
