xetoxe2

What is xetoxe2 ?

xetoxe2 is a small tool to convert the old XEphem xe catalogs to xe2. It is written in Freepascal and distributed under GPL.

 xetoxe2 <xe catalog> <xe2 catalog>

Convert the tycho catalog:

 xetoxe2 tycho.xe tycho.xe2

Convert the ppm catalog:

 xetoxe2 ppm.xe ppm.xe2

The command

 bzip2 -dc xetoxe2.tar.bz | tar -x

unpacks the archive. The archive contains a Linux ELF binary for i386. If you use a Linux PC you don't need to compile it.

Compilation (requires Freepascal) is done with the command:
make
