The Root source distribution includes effectively something that we have not yet announced, namely the TGenerator and TVenus classes. TGenerator is a general class to build interfaces to event generators. These event generators have in general been written in Fortran. TGenerator includes functions to make standard interfaces to these packages. TVenus is a class derived from TGenerator with an implementation specific to the Venus package from Klaus Werner. TVenus currently supports Venus5.12, a version not yet released by the author. We also have in preparation a class TFritiof and TPythia. The superclass TGenerator includes functions to get info from the original generator, to write the event in a Root file with the complete history and also the possibility to draw one event. Please contact me directly to get a copy of the Venus library and the instructions to use it. Rene Brun
