| | New Version of the Generic Mapping Tools Released |
 | | GMT is written in the C language and has been installed on super-computers, workstations, and MacIntosh and IBM-type personal computers, all running some flavor of UNIX; it will likely run on other UNIX platforms with little or no modification. |
 | | Most users of GMT are geoscientists, but quite a few are not: we have heard from users in medical research, engineering, physics, mathematics, social and biological sciences, and from geographers, fisheries institutes, oil companies, and a wide range of government agencies. |
 | | GMT programs do not prompt the user for input; they receive all their parameters as arguments on the command line. |
