Welcome to the Farrel Lytle "Memorial" Database!

This collection of data represents just about every scan of data ever
taken by Farrel, who is probably the most prolific scanner in the
business (and probably taking more data right now!).

These scans are all compressed using the Unix "compress" program, and
can be decompressed using the same program (e.g. "compress -d" on Unix
systems).  Compress/Uncompress programs that are compatible with these
files are also available for DOS/Windows, Macintosh, VAX/VMS, and most
other platforms as well.  Included here is the file "compress.exe".
This is the MSDOS version: use "compress -h" for help. I will try to find
a Mac version as well.

The directory tree "RAW" contains as-collected data in the native
format where the data was obtained (e.g. SSRL, CHESS, different NSLS
lines, etc.)

The directory tree "PROCESSED" contains data that in reduced to a
standard file type (which I have not yet decoded). Note that there is
no description of the data in these files, only a reference to the
original "raw" data file name.  We hope to put together a better
directory of this data before long.
