If you look at the pvanal_export.c program the format is reasonably
well explained..... well not really....the following is from pvoc.h

Subjectpvanel file format
Hi!

Majordomo asked me to say hi! and refer you to my web page . . .

Can anyone provide some description of the file format that pvanel writes 
out? Id like to try reading them from another unix mounted application.


Thanks in advance
