                         FAULT PLANE SOLUTION FORMAT

The format of the fault plane solutions produced by FPFIT are
"Y2K" HYPO71 summary cards* in columns 1-82 augmented with the
fault-plane solution parameters. The FORTRAN formats below are to be
used for reading the fields.  For more information see

   Reasenberg, P. A., and D. Oppenheimer, 1985, FPFIT, FPPLOT, and FPPAGE: 
   Fortran computer programs for calculating and displaying earthquake 
   fault-plane solutions, U.S. Geol. Surv. Open-File Rep. 85-739.

* "Y2K" version is identical to original hypo71 format, except that
  the century occupies the first 2 columns
