Links to other sites with versions for other platforms may not work. If they do, the programs may still be 1.0.2. This information will be updated as the new versions become available.
The screen drawing capabilities incorporated into these versions of ORTEP-III are provided by PGPLOT. PGPLOT is a free graphics library developed by T. J. Pearson at the California Institute of Technology. Information about PGPLOT can be found on the World Wide Web at http://astro.caltech.edu/~tjp/pgplot or via e-mail to tjp@astro.caltech.edu.
