% H.W.  Loidl, 7.11.1991, Title in \bf style, contents of

%
%  SW-form for registering the software products that are installed
%  on a machine in the ACPC network. 
%  NOTE: This is no independent LaTex file. It has to be included in the 
%        file that describes the corresponding ACPC group
%        or in a `frame' LaTex file (see `sw-frame.tex') where
%        formating information etc is given.
%        All SW-forms should be included into the group description file
%        after the included HW-form.
