Data Files...

I had to find a way to figure out how to read the data files so 
that I could start making my own objects.  The data files are written 
as type real variables and stored as binary.  CNVT.EXE converts the 
values into integers and places them in a text file and vise versa.  
If you want to play with the data files I reccomend you convert the 
binary form to integer, edit the text file, and convert it back (much 
easier than editing binary).  I still have to make the program more
effeciant.  If anyone has any ideas, comments, questions, or whatnot...
        please send me E-Mail (cserve -> Ives 72707,1257) 
                           or mail to
        Ives B.C.,  P.O. Box 395,  Wilmington, VT 05363.

note:  If you create your own data files and go beond the limit of
       maxpoints and/or maxlines (stated in the code), change the limits
       and recompile.  I'm not sure what effect this will have so try
       it out.
