Hi,

In Mathematica 6.0, I notice that the instruction

In[1]:=  Needs["LinearAlgebra`MatrixManipulation`"];

produces the following warning:

"General::obspkg: LinearAlgebra`MatrixManipulation` is now obsolete.
The legacy version being loaded may conflict with current Mathematica
functionality. See the Compatibility Guide for updating information."

In fact, a lot of my 'favourite' methods, "BlockMatrix", "ZeroMatrix",
etc. no longer are even documented in the help browser, nor is the
package MatrixManipulation.

My previous version was Mathematica 5.2, and so what *should* I be
using now instead of "BlockMatrix", "ZeroMatrix", etc.?  Thus far, I
haven't been able to find any information about obsolesced functions
within the help browser (F1).

Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Michael
