! ! TITLE: mkmac.mac (MANAGEMENT) ! !--------------------------------------------------------------------------- ! Rev - 02/28/2001 D. Edwards ! Rev A 04/13/2001 D. Edwards ! Operate on the selected line set instead of all ! lines and KP's in the database. ! ! Rev B 05/11/2002 D. Edwards ! Use ActiveState PerlApp to make mkmac.perl and ! getinfo.perl into stand alone .exe files for the ! Windows platform !--------------------------------------------------------------------------- ! ! Make a new macro from the currently selected set of lines. ! ! Macro information is obtained through prompting in the Ansys Output ! window. All the information to fill in the macro template and parm ! template files is prompted for. ! ! The resulting macro is written to the Ansys working directory. ! ! Keypoints are created at the center of each arc, if there are any. ! ! NOTE: This macro requires perl to be installed on the computer. ! See ansys/tools/README.perl for more information. ! !------------------------------ COMMAND SYNTAX ----------------------------- ! ! USAGE: mkmac,'fname' ! mkmac (All prompted input) ! ! where fname = base file name (w/o extension) of temporary ! files to create while making the macro. ! !------------------------------ Examples ----------------------------------- ! ! Prompt for information needed to fill in the new macro and store it ! in flange.inf. ! ! getiges 'flange' ! ! Running the command again will use the contents of flange.inf rather than ! prompt for all the same information again. Any changes to the information ! is accomplished by editing flange.inf before rerunning the getiges macro. ! !---------------------- List of Dependencies ------------------------------ ! ! mkmac.mac ! tools/getinfo.perl ! tools/mkmac.perl ! tools/macro_template.mac ! tools/parameter_file_template.parm ! fname.inf ! fname.des.inf (optional) ! kp_def.lis ! kp_cent.lis ! l_def.lis ! !--------------------------------------------------------------------------- *get,prkey_,active,0,prkey /nopr !
