SEE ALSO

       The    documentation    for    Macaulay2    is    available    locally     starting     in
       ${prefix}/share/doc/Macaulay2/Macaulay2Doc/html/index.html, where ${prefix} is replaced by
       the directory prefix used when the package was installed.  The directory is  available  as
       the  value  of  the  Macaulay2  variable  prefixDirectory,  but the best way to get to the
       documentation is to run the command viewHelp in Macaulay2.

       The home page for Macaulay2 is http://www.math.uiuc.edu/Macaulay2/.
