Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
The current maintainer of yorick, David H. Munro <munro@icf.llnl.gov>,
is apparently not active anymore. Therefore, I orphan this package
now. If you want to be the new maintainer, please take it -- retitle
this bug from 'O:' to 'ITA:', fix the outstanding bugs and upload a
new version with your name in the Maintainer: field and a
* New maintainer (Closes: #thisbug)
in the changelog so this bug is closed.

Description: interpreted language for number crunching
Yorick features include:
* array syntax for fast scientific computing
* scientific graphics to X, PostScript, and binary CGM
* - includes gist binary CGM browser
* gigabyte-scale I/O to binary data files
* - automatically translates number formats among all architectures
* - handles PDB and netCDF self-descriptive binary formats
.
You need GhostScript for Yorick's eps command to work.
You can import Yorick generated EPS graphics into xfig in order
to add annotations more easily than in Yorick.
The <A HREF="ftp://ftp-icf.llnl.gov/pub/Yorick/yorick-ad.html">
Yorick home page</A> has more details.
