##  For a central overview of all packages and a collection of all package
##  archives it is necessary to have two files accessible which should be
##  contained in each package:
##     - A README file, containing a short abstract about the package
##       content and installation instructions.
##     - The file you are currently reading or editing!
##  You must specify URLs for these two files, these allow to automate 
##  the updating of package information on the GAP Website, and inclusion
##  and updating of the package in the GAP distribution.
##  

  README_URL := "http://cadigweb.ew.usna.edu/~wdj/gap/toric/README.toric",
  PackageInfoURL := "http://cadigweb.ew.usna.edu/~wdj/gap/toric/PackageInfo.g",

##  Here you  must provide a short abstract explaining the package content 
##  in HTML format (used on the package overview Web page) and an URL 
##  for a Webpage with more detailed information about the package
##  (not more than a few lines, less is ok):
##  Please, use '<span class="pkgname">GAP</span>' and
##  '<span class="pkgname">MyPKG</span>' for specifing package names.

##  On the GAP Website there is an online version of all manuals in the
##  GAP distribution. To handle the documentation of a package it is
##  necessary to have:
##     - an archive containing the package documentation (in at least one 
##       of HTML or PDF-format, preferably both formats)
##     - the start file of the HTML documentation (if provided), *relative to
##       package root*
##     - the PDF-file (if provided) *relative to the package root*
##  For links to other package manuals or the GAP manuals one can assume 
##  relative paths as in a standard GAP installation. 
##  Also, provide the information which is currently given in your packages 
##  init.g file in the command DeclarePackage(Auto)Documentation
##  (for future simplification of the package loading mechanism).
##  
##  Please, don't include unnecessary files (.log, .aux, .dvi, .ps, ...) in
##  the provided documentation archive.

    # 'AvailabilityTest' function below)

## Provide a test function for the availability of this package, see
## documentation of 'Declare(Auto)Package', this is the <tester> function.
## For packages which will not fully work, use 'Info(InfoWarning, 1,
## ".....")' statements. For packages containing nothing but GAP code,
## just say 'ReturnTrue' here.
## (When this is used for package loading in the future the availability
## tests of other packages, as given above, will be done automatically and

##  Suggest here if the package should be *automatically loaded* when GAP is

##  provides some improvements of the GAP library which are likely to enhance 
##  the overall system performance for many users.

  Autoload := false,

##  *Optional*, but recommended: path relative to package root to a file which
