Vandy Math Prof's Freeware page

[benalias]

For reasons too intricate to go into, I stumbled upon a webpage by a
math professor at Vanderbilt University here in Nashville, Tennessee.

The webpage is about all sorts of freeware that he is recommending to
his students and that he has compiled on a cd they can borrow and
copy, or use the links on this page to download for themselves.

Yes, some of it is specialized mathematics freeware, but much of it is
general purpose freeware, for doing things like ZIPping files, FTPing,
and other conventional stuff.

Just thought some of you might be interested in getting another
perspective on this subject.

Woohoo! Let's make this a whole math-prof-with-freeware thread.

Yes, it *can* be done!

For those of you who don't know Rags Seely, from news.software.readers
(or other venues), he's math staff at McGill University, Montreal. Here's
his site -- the Tools link points to some freeware.
