CS MV - Contour Storage - MoVie.BYU interface

(12/29/93)

PURPOSE

Transfers contours from a contour storage file to a file formatted for input into MOVIE.BYU MOSAIC subroutine. Using MOSAIC these contours can then be tiled to form a solid model. If desired the contours can be mirrored about the X axis to flip the top and bottom of the plot.
