.B bearing

.SH DESCRIPTION
.B bearing
reads a pair of .qth files specified on the command
line, and returns the azimuth bearing and great circle path distance between
the two points specified.  A -metric switch is available so that distances
can be provided in kilometers rather than statute miles.  SPLAT! provides
similar distance and bearing information between two specific site locations.
The bearing utility, however, provides the information quickly and easily
over great distances without having to run SPLAT!
