Symbolix bug fix



Symbolix bug fix on c.a2.binaries
=================================

Unfortunately, there is a bug in Symbolix. Shame on me. This bug 
appears only when using two of the plug-ins included on the program 
disk, namely "ExpandCollect" and "Taylor"/McLaurin series. As long as 
you do not run one of these plug-ins, you need NOT install the patch.
I have written a small plug-in that will patch the offending 
instructions temporarily.

Instructions:

- download the plug-in "ExtensionFixer" from the binaries
I have BinHexed the extension with StuffIt (Mac). Choose "Decode 
BinHex" to de-hex it. Then move it to the IIGS and put it into the 
"Extensions" folder.

- launch Symbolix. Open the Extensions menu and select 
"ExtensionFixer".

- now you can use ExpandCollect and/or Taylor

The plug-in installs a temporary fix, so keep in mind that shutting 
down all extensions will also remove the patch. As long as the 
"ExtensionFixer" menu item is checked, the patch is active. 

If you have trouble with downloading the extension, please send me your
original program disk and a SASE (or US$2 for postage). For further 
information, please contact gudat@avalon.unizh.ch .

tnx, henrik
