It shows the benefits of a good IDE (in this case, Visual Studio). For the rest,
I am a crap coder, to be honest.

Here are two example outputs. These concern the same datalines that are given as
an example in original PPAS format at http://www.satobs.org/tumble/flashpm.html

90-023B  91-03-09 23:34:31.2 DWB 121.5 0.5 020 06.075 F'F'->f'Ff', mag +5.0->8.0
90-023B  93-11-04 01:31:00.0 MM  147.8 0.1 110 01.344 F'F', ssm, mag +5.0->inv

In the orgininal PPAS format, these same two lines look like this:

90- 23 B 91-03-09 23:34:31.2 DWB 121.5 0.5  20  6.08  F'F'->f'Ff', mag +5->8
90- 23 B 93-11-04 01:31      MM  147.8 0.1 110  1.343 F'F', ssm, mag +5->inv

Having the output resemble the original format is a bit more work, but doable.
