List of files

When the Night Vision package file is downloaded from the Internet, it will likely be named as follows:

    nvjvv.zip

where vv is the version number (10 represents 1.0). The suggested convention for other language versions is to have a 2 character language designation after the version number. For example a German version 1.0 would be represented as nvj10de.zip.

Unzipping the package file produces the following two files:
nvj.jar The Java file containing the Night Vision program
nvj.htm Documentation readable by a web browser
 
The program creates the following file to store user preferences in:
nvj.ini Initialization file
 
The user may request the program create the following 3 files to be modified by him/her:
nvj.loc Location file
nvj.ds The deep sky object file
nvj.stn The star name file

If Night Vision is downloaded as a self-installing package, in addition to the above files several other files (and a subdirectory) will be included to support the install/uninstall process.
