I've updated the Eiffel Programming language on Athena to 6.2 for Linux.
From my message to users:

EiffelStudio has been updated to 6.2 and made the default for Linux
(it will no longer run on Suns).  EiffelStudio is an IDE (and
command-line compiler) for the Eiffel programming language.  It is
full-featured and includes the ability to automatically generate
hyperlinked html documentation.

To access it:

        add eiffel

To run the IDE:

        estudio

To run the command-line compiler (see also file 
/mit/eiffel_v6.2/README.hello_world for more details):

        ec <options> file.ace <options>  

The README.athena file at the top of the eiffel_v6.2 locker has
pointers to additional resources and other important information.

                                            Alex
