BEDTAB

Use this to add a character (name) variable to an existing block model.

Usage:

bedtab [options] <model>

<> indicates a mandatory switch.
[ ] indicates an optional switch

Where:

Option	Description
-o <output file>	Redirect output to file.
-i <input file>	Redirect input from file.
<model>	The block model that you want to use. You don't need to specify the '.bmf' file extension.

Example:

bedtab -i inputfile.txt scudtest

Where:

-i	Denotes the input file for the translation table entries.
inputfile.txt	Refers to the name of the input file.
scudtest	Refers to the name of the block model.

Tip: To ensure that the nominated input/output file uses the correct layout, we recommend that you run the Add Variable option (under the Block > Manipulation submenu) and use the resulting text file (stored in your TEMP folder).

The text file containing the variables must be in the following format:

<variable name> <default value> <variable description>
<number of variables>
<Variable 1> 1
<Variable 2> 2
<Variable 3> 3
