KEPS.EXE is a server that scans all downloaded bulls for Keplerian elements in NASA format. Any that it finds are saved in a user-designated directory. They are saved as one element set per file. The format of the file names is <catalogue number>.KEP. Existing elements with a more recent epoch date will not be overwritten. If you don't know what Keplerian elements are, and you don't know what sort of bulls are likely to contain them, PLEASE don't bother to install this system - you will be wasting your time! KEPSMAN.EXE is a WinPack "extra" program. It is available from the WinPack File menu and allows you to view your list of Keps, delete them, prune them by epoch date, sort them by either satellite name or catalogue number and output all the Keps or just a selection to a file for importing into tracking programs, etc. PLEASE NOTE!! Because KEPS.EXE scans *ALL* downloaded bulls, there is a slight performance overhead. On a DX2/66 it isn't at all noticeable, but it might be on slower PCs.
