The latest version (1.10) is now available for download. The notebook consists of a Perl-5 CGI script and library, a java applet sketchpad, and some supporting GIF images.
No software needs to be installed on user's computers, only on the web server.

The distribution includes installation instructions for Windows and Unix systems and describes options for customization to your particular needs. Installed, the entire notebook package consumes less than 2 Mbytes (most of this is the gifs).
Let us know if you run into any problems getting the package or installing it.
