Err, no, I haven't written it up in pamphlet style at all... my version of
Axiom (Timestamp: Wednesday June 21, 2006 at 03:45:56) doesn't seem to come
with any pamphlets. The '*.spad.dvi" files just contain the text of the
*.spad files presented as dvi files. All I really want to do is to extend
the methods in intfact.spad to include ecm - which the file itself
recommends.
