NAME

       gmt2bin - Create bin-index files from gmt files

SYNOPSIS

       gmt2bin listfile [ -Ppath ] [ -V ]

DESCRIPTION

       gmt2bin  reads a file with a list of leg ids, opens each gmt file, and creates a bin-index
       file for each leg called <legid>.bix.  These are used by  binlegs  to  update  the  system
       files  read  by gmtlegs.  Normally, only the data archivist will need to be concerned with
       these operations.

       listfile
              This is a one column ASCII file with one leg id pr line.

OPTIONS

       -P     Sets full path to directory with gmtfiles.  [Default is current directory].

       -V     Selects verbose mode, which will send progress  reports  to  stderr  [Default  runs
              "silently"].
