g'day all'

It's VERY hot here and maybe my brain has boiled, but I can't seem to
get the inf to geo script to work to change a UI-view *.inf file to a
*.geo file

It exits with an error

> root at norm-linux:/usr/share/xastir/maps/Local#
/usr//lib/xastir/inf2geo.pl
mildura-ne250.inf
> *** mildura-ne250.inf ***
> Image file not found for mildura-ne250, maybe be a case problem
> root at norm-linux:/usr/share/xastir/maps/Local#


Now, I know the mildura-ne250.gif file is there. I have tried both upper
and lower case iterations. The script seems to dump at the FindImageFile
subroutine

Maybe it cant find a valid $image_size? is the .gif corrupt?

Alternatively, what is the format of the .geo, maybe I can convert by
hand?
