The original files with the data were in different formats. ... Such files were named "standard data files" and linked to the database. They can be easily transformed to any desirable format by a code. Here we present two simple computer programs of this kind. ... When running the code, you can specify columns in the output file: wavelength, energy (eV) or wavenumber (cm -1 ) as the first column, and complex refractive index or dielectric function as the second and third columns. ...

A brief description is given of: (1) a newsletter which has been established to notify interested observers of future collaborative programmes, (2) MUSICOS, a group which organizes multisite, continuous spectroscopy, and (3) a computer program which has been written to assist in the coordination of simultaneous observations from ground-based and satellite telescopes.

This diagram illustrates a frame-like layout with 'position: fixed'. The illustration shows a four-panel frameset. The top panel ("header") covers the entire width of the frameset and takes up 15% of the vertical space. ... To the right of the sidebar and below the header is the "main" area, whose dimensions are computed based on remaining available space. Finally, at the bottom, the "footer" area is 100px high and covers the entire width of the frameset. ...
