Roger, Petra...a lot of this can now be done free...by using the SCEC Community Fault Model web page. SCEC has been doing a lot of work to develop software....the link takes you to the Harvard page...
I think it would take a fairly concerted effort to get all this to work on your own system.

I also wrote a BASIC program to convert standard earthquake format to Gocad format...it needs to be rewritten for modern Basic...I have to run this on my old MAC....I can make this available but may not be too useful unless you can then use the free software to display the output......but...100s of thousands of earthquakes are already in the SCEC CFM. My programs make kind of cool 3D representations of each nodal plane and the 3D slip vectors for each nodal plane...I think it is a little better than the way they do it at Princeton...although...to each his/her own...

I wrecked my back for a week or a month from hockey so I'm going to have to work from a couch from a reclined position...good that I work on a laptop...It tool me over 3 months to get back in shape and now I'll lose that very quickly...we are suppused to play retired NHL players on March 15....who are younger and much more skilled than me....
