Factorization and characteristic sets library

With the kind permission of the author, Michael Messollen, University of Saarbruecken, Macaulay 2 incorporates a library of routines which provides factorization of multivariate polynomials over finite fields and computation of the minimal associated primes of ideals via characteristic sets. That library is copyright 1996 by Michael Messollen.
