  
  [1X1 Introduction[0X
  
  
  [1X1.1 Overview over this manual[0X
  
  Chapter  [14X1[0m is concerned with the technical details of installing and running
  this  package.  The  following  chapter [14X2[0m explains how to use [5XSCO[0m to compute
  simplicial  (co-)homology  of  orbifolds.  For  the theoretical parts please
  refer  to  my  diploma thesis and the corresponding paper (work in progress;
  [Gör08a]).  After  this  chapter you will find some simple examples on using
  [5XSCO[0m  with  (finite) groups, manifolds, or some easy orbifolds. Also included
  in  this  manual  is  a  documented  list  of the most important methods and
  functions  you will need to work with [5XSCO[0m's data types OrbifoldTriangulation
  and SimplicialSet and to create the matrices needed for computations. Anyone
  interested   in  source  code  should  just  check  out  the  files  in  the
  [11Xgap/pkg/SCO/gap/[0m folder (--> Appendix [14XA[0m).
  
  
  [1X1.2 Installation of the [5XSCO[1X Package[0X
  
  To  install  this package just extract the package's archive file to the GAP
  [11Xpkg/[0m  directory.  By  default the [5XSCO[0m package is not automatically loaded by
  [5XGAP[0m when it is installed. You must load the package with [10XLoadPackage("SCO");[0m
  before its functions become available. Please, send me an e-mail if you have
  any questions, remarks, suggestions, etc. concerning [5XSCO[0m. Also, I would like
  to hear about applications of this package.
