Hello folks

My UNIX administrator is having a problem installing the MASS libraries
on our UNIX system.  WE are trying to get the S+ 5.0 versions working.
Personally, I am not a big UNIX user, but we need to get these libraries
installed.  Please take a look at this message and send along any help.


Thanks

Jim Box
