Dear Melanie,

I am really sorry for the delay.
We have no time at the moment for GTSPP format, we are preparing a cruise for August and a software to go on the cruise, and it takes time...
Yvette will be back on the 16th of July, then we may have more time. But Gilbert will be on holliday, so...
I have put the files in TSDC format for you on our anonymous ftp as usual. TSDC. txt is a descrition of the format (I don't remenber if you have this one because we change one thing: The number of level was on 3 characters and is on 4 characters now).
I hope this will be OK,
Tell me if you have a problem ,
Best regards,
Marie-Claire
