Documentation for the machine-readable version of the Cordoba Durchmusterung (CD)

The machine-readable version of the catalog, as it is currently being distributed from the Astronomical Data Center, is presented. The complete catalog is contained in the magnetic tape file, and corrections published in all corrigenda were made to the data. The machine version contains 613959 records, but only 613953 stars (six stars were later deleted, but their logical records are retained in the file so that the zone counts are not different from the published catalog).
