Classic AT Distance Calculator Data Files <<Back Please note that this app is no longer being updated as of 01-01-2007 To get the data files for this application click on this link: points.tar.gz and download this file to your cgi-bin/atdist  directory on your UNIX or LINUX web server. If you are downloading this file to a PC or Mac and then intend to upload it to a UNIX machine, be sure to save the file as points.tar.gz, then ftp it as a binary file called points.tar.gz. Once the file is in place use the gzip utility to expand the files by typing: gunzip points.tar.gz If you don't have this freeware compression utility you can get it at: ftp://ftp.netscape.com/pub/unsupported/gnu/ Once the file is unzipped it will be in this format: points.tar To untar this file type the following: tar -xvf points.tar The result should be the points directory, which contains the three hundred forty something files with the points along the AT and their distances from the southern terminus. Be sure to chmod these files to 755  and chmod the points directory itself to 755.  If you downloaded this file to the correct location and your $points_directory variable in your atdist.pl file points to this location, then the program should have no problem reading these files
