FUNCTION:

This is a tool for Galaxy, a highly addictive play-by-e-mail
intergalatic wargame.  If you never played galaxy before you
might take a look at my homepage on:
   http://www.xs4all.nl/~slothoub.
This contains links to other galaxy pages, and contains more
info about the galaxy tools I have made.

This particular tool creates, given a turn report, a gnuplot
program that makes a map of your current situation in the
galaxy.

This map includes:
o Your Planets
o Your Enemies Planets
o All  Uninhabited planets.
o Your Ships
o Your Enemies Ships.

MakeMap creates six files:
1 planets.mine   a list of all your planets.
2 planets.full   a list of all planets of your enemies.
3 planets.empty  a list of all Uninhabited planets.
4 ships.mine     a list with all your ships.
5 ships.enem     a list with all your enemies ships.
6 galaxy.map     the gnuplot file.

If you provide the MakeMap with an additional circ.planets file
it will also draw a 20 ly circle around all the planets
that you put in this file.
Each entry in this file should have the format:
<name>  <x-coordinate> <y-coordinate>
(You can cut this information from your turn report)

In addition if you have use the program Dist to compute the
various distances between planets, you can create an input
file for this program from the output files of makemap,
using:

   cat pl* >>all_planets         (UNIX)
   join pl#? to all_planets      (Amiga)

REQUIREMENTS:

o Gnu plot.
o a standard amiga 1200.

  Enjoy.
