Here are some notes to run the kurucz model linear interpolation routine, makekurucz3.f.


1. To make this code run it is necessary to change the directory structure,
   to point to the kurold, odfnew and aodfnew directories; search on variable
   DIR to locate the place where the assignment is made.

2. At the moment the ODFNEW model with parameters [M/H]=+0.5, T=5250, logg=0.00
   was kludged, by linear extraoplation of the last line, in order to keep 72 levels
   per model.  So any interpolation that uses this model may be suspect, but probably
   no more suspect than the whole method used for the interpolations anyway.  I'd like
   to make a significant improvement to the code at some point that will also correct
   the problem with this particular model.

3. The NOVER (noovershooting) models I restricted the Teff upper limit to 8750K, because
   hotter models only had 64 levels, and I was too lazy to incorporate the mix of 72 and 
   64 levels for NOVER.  Other grids covered range from 3500-10000K Teff and 0.0-5.0 Logg.

4. The models are all for microtubulent velocity of 2.0 km/s


5. To compile I use the following command: 
      f77 makekurucz3.f phdlibsd.f -ffixed-line-length-132 -o makekurucz3.e

Model Type Definitions
-----------------------
   ODFNEW are the models with the new Opacity Distribution Functions.

   AODFNEW are the alpha enhanced models with the new Opacity Distribution Functions.

   KUROLD indicates the 1992 version of Kurucz models (with 64 levels).

   NOVER are the models with no convective overshooting.



Important Note:
---------------

   AODFNEW and ODFNEW were made using E(Fe)sun = 7.50.

   KUROLD and NOVER models were made using E(Fe)sun = 7.67.
