This note describes a set of FORTRAN routines (<#9#>REZEST<#9#>) that
estimates charged track resolution in transverse momentum
and direction for the GlueX detector geometry. Parameters of that
geometry can be varied to quickly obtain estimates for new
configurations. Since no Monte Carlo is used in the calculations,
results are returned immediately. Instructions on how to obtain and
use the software are provided and a description of the approximations
used is given.
