ANNOUNCING: A bug fix version of the Notation Package for unix systems including linux. AVAILABLE FROM: http://resources.wolfram.com/packages/notation/ SUMMARY: The Notation Package which ships with Mathematica 4.0 unfortunately contains a bug in the unix versions. It transpires that SelectedNotebook[] has slightly different functionality on unix platforms than it has on either Macintosh or Windows platforms. As a consequence the styles which the Notation package uses are not added to the style sheet. In addition the keyboard shortcuts Esc-symb-Esc and Esc-notation-Esc cannot be used. This update fixes these problems, as well as including several smaller tweaks. The Notation package which shipped with Mathematica 4.0 will however work perfectly correctly, it just won't have the fullest onscreen appearance. (The version which will be shipping with Mathematica 4.0.1 will also fix these problems) Yours, Jason Harris
