Files "gfall.dat.gz" and "gfall.pbin" should be here, in this "pconv"
directory! The first one is the gzipped text-version needed by the 
"pconv"-program, the second one is the binary version, needed by ST.

If "gfall.pbin" is not there first build the pconv program, unpack the file 
"gfall.dat.gz" and run the conversion program. This should result in a correct
version of the binary "gfall.pbin" file for your platform.

                        Under UNIX, go to this very directory by typing:
"cd pconv"
                        Then compile the conversion-program by typing:
"make"
                        Unpack the text-version of the database by typing:
"gunzip gfall.dat.gz"
                        Run the database-conversion program by typing:
"./pconv"
                        The binary file "gfall.pbin" should be there now.
                        You no longer need the "pconv" program, remove it by typing:
"make clean"
                        The original textfile is no longer necessary as well, 
                        to preserve diskspace, you may pack it again by typing:
"gzip gfall.dat"
                        Finally return to the source-directory by typing:
"cd .."


I downloaded "gfall.dat" on feb 12, 2001 from server
"ftp://cfaku5.harvard.edu" using text-mode, directory
CFAKU5:[LINELISTS.GFALL]:

   GFALL.DAT;2   172163   5-OCT-2000   12:31:48.82

It should contain exactly 564942 lines (and carriage returns) and, under UNIX, 
it should be 87582045 bytes in size.

Thanks to Robert L. Kurucz!
