                    CABRI_GEOMETRE Version 2.1 (DEMO) 
                            Written as part of 
                            the Cabri project
        Laboratoire de Structures Discretes et de Didactique (IMAG),
                  Universite Joseph Fourier in Grenoble.

These are  demonstration packages the  commerical program "Cabri 
Geometre". Cabri-geometreDemoE is the English languish version.  A
tri-language verson (English-French-German) is available in 
Cabri-geometreDemo3L.  The language is chosen in the "Preferences..." 
selection of the "Edit" menu. The demo version has all the functionalities 
of the complete version except constructing circles and saving.

Cabri-geometre is an Interactive Notebook to Teach and Learn 
Geometry.  With this package, you perform ruler-compass constructions 
and then pose questions.  You can ask whether lines are parallel or 
perpendicular.  You can compare measures of objects (area, length, 
angular measurement).  An especially nice feature is the ability to 
move points used as references in constructions and the figure 
changes appropriately.  With this you can examine the trace of a 
point to find the locus of points, say equidistant from a given 
point and a given line.

The package consists of the Cabri-geometre(demo) program, a sample 
figures folder, a sample macro-constructions folder, and  a READ-ME 
file (an 11 page manual in user note form).

The program runs on system 4.0 or later, including system 7, and 
appears to be 32-bit clean. It does not use color and does not need 
an FPU.
