# Requirements:
#   - CDF 3.1 library that is available at http://cdf.gsfc.nasa.gov
#   - ANSI C compiler
#
#
# How to compile and link:
#   The cdf-to-pds binary executable is produced on Fedora Core 6. 
#   If you have Linux other than Fedore Core 6, you might have to compile and
#   link from cdf-to-pds.c.  
#
#     cc -o <executable name> -I<CDF_INC> cdf-to-pds.c <CDF_LIB>/libcdf.a -lm
#    
#        where CDF_INC is the location of the CDF include directory and
#              CDF_LIB is the location of the CDF library directory.
#      
#   If the CDF library library is installed under /home/david, then
#   the build command is
#
#      cc -o cdf-to-pds -I/home/david/include cdf-to-pds.c /home/david/libcdf.a -lm
#
#
# How to execute cdf-to-pds:
#
#   cdf-to-pds <cdf name>
#
#   Typing cdf-to-pds alone will display the help message on the screen.
#
#
# NOTE:
#   The cdf-to-pds program can handle a generic CDF file that contains scalar
#   variables.  It currently DOES NOT support vectorts and 2-D and higher
#   dimensional arrays.
