"Several of the author-written programs that come with the book have been completely rewritten to improve their interface and usability, and they are now compatible with the latest operating systems and computers. The programs Fourbar, Fivebar, Sixbar, and Slider have been combined in a new program called Linkages that does everything those programs collectively did and has some new features added. Program Dynacam also has been completely rewritten and is much improved. Programs Engine and Matrix are unchanged. These computer programs undergo frequent revision to add features and enhancements"--
