+ The Photometry Tools Package
+ -------------------------------
+
+The ptools package contains routines which perform oerations on the
+text database files and/or ST binary tables files produced by the APPHOT
+and DAOPHOT packages, and scripts which make the fact that any given database
+is a table or a text file transparent to the user.
+
+The ptools directory structure is listed below. The .h files are all in lib
+as many of them are shared by several tasks.
+
+ |-pconvert------routines to the pconvert task
+ |-doc-----------ptools documentation
+|-ptools-----|-lib-----------ptools definitions or .h files
+ |-pexamine------routines specific to the pexamine task
+ |-ptutils-------routines specific to miscellneous utility tasks
+ |-txtools-------routines specific to the text file operators
+ |-test----------directory of test data
