As the title says, this program maps orbits of area-preserving maps.  The
selection of maps is 
	   Standard Map:     y' = y - k sin(2 pi x)/(2 pi)
                      x' = x + y'
    Henon:            y' = x
                      x' = -y -  a + x^2
    Fermi (Ulam):     y' = y + k sin(2 pi x)/(2 pi)
                      x' = x + 1/y'
    Two harmonic:     y' = y - (a sin(2 pi x) + b sin (4 pi x))/(2 pi)
                      x' = x + y'
    Piecewise LInear: y' = y - V'(x) (appropriate V')
                      x' = x + y'
                      
The user can modify the paramters, then find periodic orbits, stable and
unstable manifolds for a hyperbolic periodic orbit with a given frequency,
a sequence of periodic orbits that converge to a homoclinic point, or a
periodic orbit with a given Farey sequence.

Balloon help is implemented and offers sufficient help in using the
program.  

This program requires FPU, but tests out fine on a PowerMac with
SoftwareFPU installed.
