Hi, Bill,

Thanks for making this file available. One of my friends (anda Guide
user) is currently studying the Magellanic Clouds from his home in
Bolivia. I downloaded and looked at the file but was unsure whether it
should go in an existing Guide folder or whether I should just unzip it
to the root Guide directory.

Thanks.
