/*

*  Name:
*     palGaleq

*  Purpose:
*     Convert from galactic to J2000.0 equatorial coordinates

*  Language:
*     Starlink ANSI C

*  Type of Module:
*     Library routine

*  Invocation:
*     void palGaleq ( double dl, double db, double *dr, double *dd );

*  Arguments:
*     dl = double (Given)
*       Galactic longitude (radians).
*     db = double (Given)
*       Galactic latitude (radians).
*     dr = double * (Returned)
*       J2000.0 RA (radians)
*     dd = double * (Returned)
*       J2000.0 Dec (radians)

*  Description:
*     Transformation from IAU 1958 galactic coordinates to
*     J2000.0 equatorial coordinates.

*  Authors:
*     PTW: Pat Wallace (STFC)
*     TIMJ: Tim Jenness (JAC, Hawaii)
*     {enter_new_authors_here}

*  Notes:
*     The equatorial coordinates are J2000.0.  Use the routine
*     palGe50 if conversion to B1950.0 'FK4' coordinates is
*     required.
