<P>
The Generic Mapping Tools (<A NAME="tex2html9"
HREF="http://www.soest.hawaii.edu/gmt"><B>GMT</B></A>) could not have been designed without
the generous support of several people. We gratefully acknowledge
A. B. Watts and W. F. Haxby for supporting our efforts on the original
version 1.0 while we were their graduate students at Lamont-Doherty
Earth Observatory. Doug Shearer and Roger Davis patiently answered
many of our questions over e-mail. The subroutine <TT>gaussj</TT> was
written and supplied by Bill Menke, L-DEO.
Further development of versions 2.0 and 2.1 at SOEST would not have
been possible without the support from the Hawaii Institute of
Geophysics and School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology
Post-Doctoral Fellowship program to Paul Wessel. Walter H. F. Smith
gratefully acknowledges the generous support of the C. H. and I. M.
Green Foundation for Earth Sciences at the Institute of Geophysics
and Planetary Physics, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University
of California at San Diego.
<A NAME="tex2html10"
HREF="http://www.soest.hawaii.edu/gmt"><B>GMT</B></A> versions 3.0-3.4 owe their existence to grants EAR-93-02272, OCE-95-29431,
and OCE-0082552 from the National Science Foundation, which we
gratefully acknowledge.
<P>
We would like to acknowledge the feedback we have received from many
of the users of earlier versions. Many of these suggestions have
been implemented, and the bug reports have been useful in providing
more robust programs. Specifically, we would like to thank William
Weibel, Ameet Raval, Manfred Brands, Angel Li, Andrew Macrae, John
Lillibridge, Richard Signell, Michael Barck, Alex Madon, Ben Horner-Johnson,
Georg Schwarz, Lloyd Parkes, David Townsend, and many others for
advice on how to make <A NAME="tex2html11"
HREF="http://www.soest.hawaii.edu/gmt"><B>GMT</B></A> portable to DEC, SGI, HP, IBM, Apple, and
NEXT workstations. John Lillibridge provided example 11. William
Yip helped translate <A NAME="tex2html12"
HREF="http://www.soest.hawaii.edu/gmt"><B>GMT</B></A> to POSIX ANSI C and incorporate netCDF 3,
Allen Cogbill provided OS/2 patches for EMX, and Hanno von Lom helped
resolve problems with DLL libraries for Win32.
