This directory contains documentation related to the Icon programming
language.  Some of it is current, and some of it is historic.

Unix implementations come with additional documentation that does
not appear here but can be found at
	http://www.cs.arizona.edu/icon/v943/docguide.htm

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Most documents are in three forms:

	.pdf -- Adobe Acrobat portable document format
	.zip -- ZIP file containing one compressed PostScript file
	.txt -- ASCII text

ASCII .txt files are not available for documents that have graphics
or that do not lend themselves to a pure text representation for other
reasons.

.pdf files can be viewed with Acrobat Reader, which is available
free of charge for the AIX, Macintosh, Windows, MS-DOS, HP workstations,
and Sun workstations.  See

	http://www.adobe.com/acrobat/readstep.html
