-- Converting OLD maps and Place files into version 6.0 form ---

Note:
	-  DO NOT ERASE YOUR OLD VERSION -you may still need it! Version 6.0
	   is still in beta form.

	- You will need enough additional hard disk space for the old + new 
	  map files.

  - All new map files will have the extensions MP1,MP2,MP3,MP4,MP5.
    STREETS version 6.0 stores lines, boundaries, and points in the same
    set of map files. There is no longer a need for place files (.PL).
		In the new version there is no difference between places and points.



These directions assume that the old files are in the \STREETS
directory and the new ones in \ST6.

CONVERTING OLD MAPS:

1. Run the utility OLD2NEW. This will make a new set of map files.

	Format:  OLD2NEW  oldfilename newfilename

	Example: OLD2NEW  \streets\ca001  \st6\ca001

2. Run the utility MP-SORT.

	Format:  MP-SORT  newfilename

	Example: MP-SORT  \st6\ca001

3. Run the utility MP-INDEX.

	Format:  MP-INDEX  newfilename

	Example: MP-INDEX  \st6\ca001


CONVERTING  OLD PLACE FILES:

1. Run the utility OLD2NEWP. This will make a new set of map files with
	place locations included.

	You will need to include the name of an OLD street map file to use as a
	reference.

	Format:  OLD2NEWP  ref_filename  oldplaces  newfilename

	Example: OLD2NEWP  \streets\ca001  \streets\places.pl  \st6\places

2. Run the utility MP-SORT.

	Format:  MP-SORT  newfilename

	Example: MP-SORT  \st6\places
