Compiled by KD

== Description ==
The executable make_pictlistX creates the file [[PICTLISTX.TXT]]. This routine is useful because it extracts necessary information from all the sumfiles so that potentially thousands of files do not have to be opened in order to determine whether a maplet is visible in an image by the lithos program. In other words, [[lithos]] will use the images listed in [[PICTLISTX.TXT]] before [[PICTLIST.TXT]] if [[PICTLISTX.TXT]] is present in the working directory. [[PICTLISTX.TXT]] will be loaded faster in [[lithos]] than PICTLIST.TXT because PICTLISTX.TXT lists the pictures that have precomputed data, which [[lithos]] uses.


== Input files ==
