The KAN package - version 0.95

This is the README file for the GAP package ``KAN''.

This package was conceived as a package for computing induced actions
of categories.  This version only deals with deouble coset rewriting
systems for finitely presented groups.
A more detailed history is included as Chapter 3 of the manual.

The ``KAN'' package will, in due course, be added to the other deposited 
GAP packages, and may be submitted for official acceptance.

Meanwhile, it may also be obtained from the Bangor ftp pages for
Computational Higher-dimensional Discrete Algebra at:
  http://www.informatics.bangor.ac.uk/public/mathematics/chda/
