Instructions for using Coxeter 3.0 software I am trying to use Coxeter 3.0 (http://www.liegroups.org/coxeter/coxeter3/english/coxeter3_e.html) to perform some computations for affine Weyl groups. I managed to install the program and get it running, but I cannot find any instructions.
I have figured out how to get the program to do some computations for finite Weyl groups (types A, B, etc), but have not figured out the commands for affine types. Does anyone have a link to instructions which explain how to do this, or can anyone tell me how to enter affine types into Coxeter 3.0? 
For example, I can enter "type" -> "A" -> "2" to work with type A rank 2 in the finite case. But how do I enter affine type A (untwisted)?
I hope this is an appropriate place to post this request.
 A: If you type "help" immediately on entering the program, you'll get a fairly long and useful introductory message. At whatever level you are, you are supposed to be able to type "help," and then the name of any command accessible at that level, to get a message about it. (Well, not all these help files exist.) The help files exist as text files in the directory "messages" (in the untarred file from the web site you mention). Instructions for entering Coxeter groups are in the file "wrongtype.mess." (I would have been tempted to call it "type.mess," but that's probably wrong for a reason explained in "unconventions.mess.")
In particular, the affine groups are entered in exactly the same way as their finite counterparts, using lower case letters: so
"type" -> "a" -> "3"
will get you the affine rank three group whose diagram is a triangle.
Also in the home directory from the tar file is "INTRO.tex," which produces a fifteen page mathematical introduction to what the software is doing and how. (Not so useful for finding the ignition switch.)
JianYi Shi at East China Normal University (and his students) have done a lot of work with affine Coxeter groups, including use of coxeter for computations of KL polynomials.
