seg2csv

This C-language program would follow after first converting from either an instrument format (Bison | SEG-2) or from the SEGY exchange format to the BSU format, BSEGY. The online help shown below reveals that this program does not limit the data the way program seg2txt above does. For example, if the input file is 48 traces, 2500 samples per trace, the output *.csv file will have 2500 rows and 49 columns (the extra column being sample time, and is the first column). The advantage of this approach is that the user need not know how many channels or samples are in the file, and the disadvantage is that a very big file could swamp the limits of a spread sheet program.
