hi,

the archive contains source and Makefile for the 'stl2gts' utility, which
converts STL data (either ASCII or binary) to the GTS format.

to build, extract the archive, change into the directory, and 'make'.  there's
no  install target, just copy/move the file into a PATH directory.


enjoy, jr.

Is this converter unrelated to the converter of the same name floating 
about on the web?

oh dear, lacking .. due diligence.  entirely unrelated[*].  had not even checked
for potential name clash.  :-(

will publish any update with a different name, thanks for the pointer.

[*] and more capable, judging by its man page.


regards, jr.
