Dear Karoly,

    Since a request like this appears fairly frequently, I have uploaded the
StL format specifications for both ASCII and binary to the Ennex Web site.
Please visit http://www.ennex.com/fabbers/StL.htm for all you ever wanted to
know about StL.

    Good luck in your software development work. Please keep us posted on
your progress.
