			Prime Time TeXcetera

There have been some inquiries and comments in this group about our new
TeX-related product.  As it has (finally :-) gone off for mastering, we
now feel safe in making a formal announcement.  So here goes...

    Prime Time TeXcetera consists of a 100 page book and an ISO-9660
    CD-ROM.  The disc contains essentially the entire CTAN, as of mid-
    May, 1994.  It uses Info-ZIP format, allowing use with a variety
    of computer systems.

    To make the disc easier to use, we have added a substantial amount
    of annotation and indexing.  (As usual, we will allow FTP archives
    to use and distribute this ancillary material.)

    Prime Time TeXcetera was edited by Vicki Brown.  The list price is
    US$60.  For more information, send email to: ptf@cfcl.com

Yours, Rich Morin
Prime Time Freeware

P.S.    We plan to start shipping the product in late June, 1994.

P.P.S.  For non-TeX document preparation tools (e.g., groff, lout,
	MAEstro), inquire about Prime Time Freeware for UNIX.
