.SH NAME
sm1 \-  Computer algebra system for the ring of differential operators
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B sm1
.RB [ -f 
.IR filename ]
.RB [ -standardmacros ]
.RB [ -q ]
.RB [ -s
.IR command strings ]

.SH DESCRIPTION
The system kan/sm1 is a Grobner engine specialized especially
to the ring of differential operators.
The sm1 language is a subset of
the Postscript language with an extension for object oriented
programming.
It is designed to be a back-end engine for a 
heterotic distributed computing system.
However, it is not difficult to control kan/sm1 directly.
Its basic data types are
.TP
integers, polynomials (differential operators)
.PP
and lists.


.SH OPTIONS
The following command line options are available:
.TP
.B \-f " filename"
Upon startup, sm1 executes the file "filename".
.TP
.B \-standardmacros
Do not execute startup macros.
.TP
.B \-q
Quiet mode. 
.TP
.BI \-s " command string"
Upon startup, sm1 executes the command string.

.SH USE
.TP
.B ?
to get a list of primitives.
.TP
.B ??
to get a list of standard macros.
.TP
.B quit
(or \\q), or
.B EOF
(Ctrl-D) to quit
.TP
