As Bob has mentioned, I have a include file that will do this for you.  It
is particuarly designed to create the maximum number of stars with the
minimum of memory usage and parsing time.  Also, unlike other methods posted
it supports various types of stars, and the stars are pre-antialiased, so
they do not slow down rendering much, if at all, when you turn anti-aliasing
on.  You can download the include file as part of the Galaxy Include package
