RE: PARI

["Tom Gettys" <tpgettys@comcast.net>]

Thank you very much for your response Bill.  So, just to be clear, there is
no way to compose a multiline script within PARI, and no way to modify one
that I read in from a file, correct?  Also, I presume that after file is
read using the \r command PARI starts to execute the script immediately
(that is, there is no GO or RUN command).

To dream of the person you would like to be
is to waste the person you are.

Pick up any text editor, write your program and save it to foo.gp,
start gp and issue 
\r foo

Cheers,
