+gridloc is a ncurses console application for the calculation of
+Maidenhead QRA Locators from location co-ordinates, and vice
+versa. gridloc also calculates distance and direction (long-path
+or short-path) from a "home" location to another (DX) location.
+
+The package places a /usr/doc/gridloc/.gridlocrc on your system.
+If you copy this to the $HOME of your user, it will use this
+config file.
