+ The Daophot Photometry Package
+ ----------------------------------
+
+The daophot package contains routines which perform crowded-filed
+photometry using point spread functions fitting techniques.
+The aperture photometry package routines are used to provide initial
+estimates for the magnitudes of these objects.
+
+The daophot directory structure is listed below. The package organization
+is by task, for example the nstar subdirectory contains routines
+specific to the nstar task or by function.
+The .h files are all in lib as many of them are shared by several tasks.
+
+ |-addstar-------routines specific to the addstar task
+ |-allstar-------routines specific to the allstar task
+ |-daoedit-------routines specific to the daoedit task
+ |-daolib--------routines common to many daophot tasks
+ |-doc-----------daophot documentation
+ |-group---------routines specific to the group task
+|-daophot----|-lib-----------daophot definitions or .h files
+ |-nstar---------routines specific to the nstar task
+ |-peak----------routines specific to the peak task
+ |-psf-----------routines specific to the psf/pstselect tasks
+ |-seepsf--------routines specific to the seepsf task
+ |-select--------routines specific to the grpselect/psfmerge tasks
+ |-substar-------routines specific to the substar task
+ |-test----------directory of test data
