for the computation with crystallographic groups. CARAT is to a large \
extent complementary to the <span class=\"pkgname\">GAP</span> package \
<span class=\"pkgname\">Cryst</span>. In particular, it provides \
routines for the computation of normalizers and conjugators of \
finite unimodular groups in GL(n,Z), and routines for the computation \
of Bravais groups, which are all missing in <span class=\"pkgname\">Cryst\
</span>. A catalog of Bravais groups up to dimension 6 is also provided.",
