Documentation

Documentation for the following is available here: MR/1, MR/2, MR/3, MR/4 (Windows/Intel, Linux/Intel, Solaris/Sun, and Mac/OS X).
A selection of these programs can be run from the MR/Materials graphical user interface (Windows/Intel only).
A further selection of programs can by run from the MR/Signal graphical user interface (Windows/Intel).
Format used for documentation is Adobe Acrobat PDF (for which Acrobat reader programs are widely available).
