Intro
-----
 The Pan Galactic-Guide spread up from the alt.galactic-guide newsgroup
 and contains humorous articles on life, everything and the universe.

 Full details can be seen at its new homepage:
     http://www.galactic-guide.com/

 pgg2tr is a Perl script which reads in text files containing one or
 more articles and outputs a tab separated file suitable for inputting
 into "tomebind" or TomeRaider 2 for Windows.


Usage
-----
 Piece of cake (assuming pgg2tr is in the PATH, if in the current directory
 use ./pgg2tr rather than pgg2tr)

     $ pgg2tr *.NEW >pgg.tab

 Then use a WINE wrapper for tomebind or use a Windows box and the
 Win32 version of TomeRaider 2.

 The script I use for creating TR1 files is:

 --------8<--------
#!/bin/sh

echo Starting tomebind, this may take some time...
wine "/mnt/dos/Utils/tomebind.exe $@"
 -------->8--------
