Directories for Applications

This describes where to put files associated with your application or diagnostic.

TFTR_INF is a directory that contains much useful information, in files with a .INF extension. This includes:

    DIGRAPH.INF       list of digraphs
    di.INF            information about digraph 'di'
    WAVEFORMS.INF     descriptions of all waveforms
    UFILES.INF        descriptions of Ufiles
    XPnnn.INF         information on XP 'nnn'
    PHONES.INF        phones of TFTR people and places

TFTR_PLT  is a directory for .PLT files that are not needed on disk once they have been hardcopied or displayed during the shot. To use it, write to TFTR_PLT. For example:

     $ DEFINE PLOT TFTR_PLT:MY_PLOT.PLT

will send your SG plot files to TFTR_PLT. Files in this area will be deleted after about a week.

TFTR_LOG  is a directory for log files. Files in TFTR_LOG are automatically purged after about 4 days.

     $ SUBMIT/LOG=TFTR_LOG: MY_JOB
     $ DIR TFTR_LOG:MY_JOB.LOG

TFTR_EXAMPLES  is a directory which contains example procedures and subroutine calls. Examples may be complete programs in .FOR files with corresponding .LNK files showing how to link the routines being described. Other examples may be program fragments or procedures.

TFTR_COM:[di] are directories for digraph-related executables and procedure files.

SCRATCH  is a disk that is sometimes available. When available, it is intended to be used by anyone who needs lots of space for a short time. To see if it is available:

    $ SHOW DEV SCRATCH

To use it:

    $ CREATE/DIRECTORY SCRATCH:[MYNAME]
    $ SET DEF SCRATCH:[MYNAME]

The scratch disk is not backed up.
