Descriptions:

	wxapt: Weather satellite APT image decoder.
	===========================================

	wxapt is a non-interactive command line tool for decoding weather 
	images transmitted by satellites using the APT format. Currently 
	wxapt can decode images in the American NOAA and Russian Meteor 
	satellite APT formats only. Other formats may be supported in 
	future versions if I can receive signals from the relevant 
	satellites and find enough information on the format used as well.
	Images are decoded either in real time direct from the receiver o/p
	through the computer's sound card, or from a file of sound samples
	recorded by wxapt.

	Please see the wxapt.html hypertext documentation for details of 
	compilation and operation.

	pt: Weather satellite APT image decoder.
	============================================

	xwxapt is an X/GTK+ application for decoding weather images
	transmitted by satellites using the APT format. Currently
	xwxapt can decode images in the American NOAA and Russian
	Meteor satellite APT formats only. Other formats may be
	supported in future versions if I can receive signals from
	the relevant satellites and find enough information on the
	format used as well. Images are decoded either in real time
	direct from the receiver o/p through the computer's sound
	card, or from a file of sound samples recorded by wxapt.

	Note: xwxapt requires GTK+ v2.x.x
