A reduced version of the Yale Catalog of Bright Stars has been posted to
net.sources.  The posting consists of 9 data files containing information
on about 9000 stars.  Data consists of RA (2000), DEC (2000), MAG, COLOR,
and PM.  There is also a description file with data format and an example
extraction program which plots a starmap on a Z-100 monochrome screen in
intensity levels.  Enjoy.
