A Geneva mechanism is used to provide an intermittant rotational motion of
the driven part while the driver wheel rotates continuously. This program
simulates a Geneva mechanism with 4 or 6 slots. It displays graphs
describing the angular position and the angular velocity of both parts of
the mechanism, and it can also draw the tangential velocity of both parts.

System Requirements: YP Geneva Mechanism runs on any Macintosh computer
with MAC OS 7.0 or later. It needs about 700 Kb on your hard disk and 1 Mb
of RAM.
