Point and loop error libraries.

[Philip Schuchardt]

Olly,

I think I could compartmentalize solve_network() in netskel.c.  To 
compartmentalize solve_network would require the global node *stnlist to be 
declared as a local variable.  There might be other globals that I'm missing.

Currently, I'm wanting take the input for my GUI. Then create a list using 
Node and send it to solve_network() and get the results.  Do you think this 
would work?

Also, how do you handle stations with more than 3 legs?  In cavern.h you say:
node - like a station, except several nodes are used to represent a station 
with more than 3 legs connected to it.  How do you put together several nodes 
when there are more then 3 legs?

Does the loop error just get printed out for the loops(*.err) or is it written 
into a data structure?

I'm also confused on what Prefix *up, *down, *right does in struct Prefix.  
Where is the clino, compass, length, etc..., processed or stored for each 
survey leg?

Thanks,
Philip Schuchardt
