The XMod package provides functions for computation with
finite crossed modules and cat1-groups, and morphisms of these structures;
finite pre-crossed modules, pre-cat1-groups, and their Peiffer quotients;
derivations of crossed modules and sections of cat1-groups;
the actor crossed square of a crossed module; and
crossed squares and their morphisms (experimental version).
XMod was originally implemented in 1997 using the GAP3 language. when the first author was studying for a Ph.D. [Alp97] in Bangor.
In April 2002 the first and third parts were converted to GAP4, the pre-structures were added, and version 2.001 was released. The final two parts, covering derivations, sections and actors, were included in the January 2004 release 2.002 for {\GAP}~4.4.
The current version is 2.12, released on 24th November 2008.
Bug reports, suggestions and comments are, of course, welcome. Please contact the second author at c.d.wensley@bangor.ac.uk.
