These should be installed in a directory included in your PATH (e.g., /usr/local/bin). These programs are merely wrapper programs that invoke the underlying functionality provided by the library. The utilities all accept data on standard input, transform it in some way, and print the results on standard output. This makes the utilities easy to use within scripts to transform tabular data; however they can also be used interactively, often with the input supplied via a pipe, e.g.,</p>
<ul>
<li>echo 38SMB4488 | GeoConvert -d</li>
</ul>
<p>The utlilities are</p>
<ul>
