   xyda(predata: in, xydap: in, postdata: out, output: out)

files

   predata: A data file containing lines with two values:
        position (an integer or real number)
        number of events at that position (integer)
      Blank lines or lines that begin with '*' are copied to the
      postdata file.
      Negative number values halt the program.
      Zero number values are ignored

   postdata:  For each pair of position and number lines in the predata,
      the position value is written out repeatedly according to
      the number given.

   xydap:  parameters to control the program.  The file must contain the
      following parameters, one per line:

      parameterversion: The version number of the program.  This allows the
         user to be warned if an old parameter file is used.

      Other than the parameterversion, this file is not used yet.

   output: messages to the user
