The package contains:

1. This README file
2. FPA compression program (fpa) which requires the name of file to be
   compressed as an argument and generates the compressed file with the
   same filename appended by a suffix .F.
3. FPA decompression program (unfpa) takes as an argument the name of
   compressed file (with the extension .F) and generates the decompressed
   file (prefix without .F).

Please report any problems to Nasir Rajpoot at nasir@dcs.warwick.ac.uk.
