Run definitions file
The run definitions file is used in table manipulation to define run IDs for previous Quantum runs. Each line consists of a Run ID, one or more spaces and the name of the run it represents. Run IDs may be a maximum of six letters long.
The run definition file is named as follows:
Windows
run.def
Runs are identified by their pathname. For example:
JAN \barbara\quantum\run1
If you want to use values created by manipulation, follow the pathname with the word manip. For example:
FEB \barbara\quantum\run1 manip
UNIX
run.def
Runs are identified by their directory pathname; the notations . and .. are valid but ~ is not. For example:
JAN /usr/qt/barbara/quantum/run1
France ../run2
To use values created by manipulation, follow the pathname with the word manip. For example:
FEB /usr/qt/barbara/quantum/run1 manip
