Quantum command
Quick reference
To run a complete Quantum job, type:
quantum [options] [program_file] [data_file] [tables_file]
More information
If you omit the program and/or data file names, Quantum will prompt you for them as it needs them. If you omit the name of the tables output file, Quantum will save any tables in a file called tab_.
Options on the command line enable you to:
▪run only one section of the job such as the compilation stage or the table creation stage
▪define a run ID when you want to do more than one run in the directory
▪define the names of directories in which Quantum should look for program and data files or create intermediate files
▪convert the Quantum program and data files into a Quanvert database.
