\item[Window title:] DsTool for (architecture), Version Tk
\item[Function:] The Command window is the main control panel for the dynamical
	system toolkit.
\item[Description:] The Command window is opened at start-up.
	The main function of this window is to allow the user to 
	interact with the package through various panel items.
%	Iconizing this window causes all other 
%	DsTool windows to disappear from view (including the icons
%	of any windows owned by the package). \index{iconizing DsTool}
%	The subsequent reopening of the package results in a return to the
%	state the user was in before the package was iconized.
%\item[Window type:] base frame
%\item[Window attributes:] iconizable, resizable, fixed template
\item[Panel items:]  \mbox{}

	\item Models menu button: \index{dynamical systems}\index{models} 
	 	\begin{description}
		\item[Mappings:]\index{mapping models}\index{models, mappings} 
			Allows the user to choose a mapping as the dynamical system to study.
		\item[Vector Fields:]\index{vector field models}\index{models, vector fields} 
			Allows the user to choose a vector field as the dynamical system to study. 
		\item[Animated systems:]\index{animated system models}\index{models, animated systems} 
			Allows the user to choose a vector field enabled with accompanying Geomview animation 
			as the dynamical system to study. 
		\item[User-defined categories:]\index{models, user-defined}\index{user-defined model}
			Allows the user to choose a model from categories the
			user has defined in a custom version of DsTool as the 
		 	dynamical system to study. 
			Multiple categories can be defined by the user.   See section
